Exhibition Overview

Syzygy, William Newman’s series of nineteen oil paintings, photographs, and two metal sculptures, is a vibrant rumination on temporality, subjective freedom and natural splendor. The photographs, photo-realist paintings and stainless steel sculptures present striking natural objects with personal resonance for Newman.  Seen together, photographs that take a click to create and paintings that required years to produce join to represent nature’s fleeting beauty, its life through memory and desire, and its timeless eternal renewal.
