Let’s Go Away for Awhile examines painting’s ability to transport the viewer to another space — be it physical or metaphysical — through the use of representational imagery, abstraction, and areas in between. The exhibition features the work of sixteen painters, most of whom are based in Brooklyn. The title comes from an instrumental track on The Beach Boys’ Pet Sounds album. In the words of composer Brian Wilson, “I applied a certain set of dynamics through the arrangement and the mixing and got a full musical extension of what I’d planned during the earliest stages of the theme. I think the chord changes are very special. I used a lot of musicians on the track… the total effect is ‘Let’s Go Away for Awhile,’ which is something everyone in the world must have said at some time or another. Nice thought; most of us don’t go away, but it’s still a nice thought.”

Opening reception for artists July 11, 2015, 6-9pm at One Mile Gallery, 475 Abeel Street, Kingston NY. Exhibition runs through August 8, 2015.et, Kingston NY. Exhibit open through August 8, 2015
