Charleston Artist Guild in Charleston, SC, Moves Gallery to Larger Location
Titled Tidesong, the exhibition includes recent paintings on canvas and works on paper that explore the artist’s fascination with the land-scape and quality of light along the South Carolina coast. Reflecting on his work, Rutenberg has said, “My imagination was in large part formed by my childhood experience grow-ing up in the Lowcountry of South Carolina from Myrtle Beach down to Charleston and to this day I still use that sense of light and that geography as kind of a springboard, as a starting point for the work even though the work does not end up being about the Lowcountry or anything down there. There’s a certain kind of light down there when you’re around a lot of water. It’s like a silvery, blue light that permeates everything. It can be melancholic. It can be joyful. It can be many, many different facets, and I try to get that feeling of light.” “We are pleased to host an exhibi-tion for South Carolina native Brian Rutenberg, in conjunction with his
