Assemblage
2012

In my house in Ballard where I have lived all my life, nature has overgrown my yard and entered into a symbiotic relationship with my many sculptural assemblages of furniture parts, cardboard, and other mixed-media elements, all painted with bright acrylics and gesso, weather tested. For this exhibition, I have created a new assemblage that evokes the abstract or primitive, maintaining a representational base (human faces featured in profile) amidst a chaos of color, line, and structure that the natural environment will enhance and complement. [statement written by DF]

Statement:

Reno has a wide range of work, from painting to sculpture, from abstract to realism. The work under consideration here tends toward the abstract or primitive, maintaining a representational base (human faces are often featured in profile)amidst a chaos of color, line, and structure that the orchard (or another site) will enhance and complement.

Bio:

Joe Reno (b. 1943) is a well-known Northwest artist with pieces in the Henry Art Gallery, Seattle Art Museum, Tacoma Art Museum, Bellevue Art Museum, the Museum of Northwest Art and at his alma mater, Ballard High School. His work has also been widely reviewed by critics like Matthew Kangas. The Kirkland Fine Arts Center held a retrospective of his Works on Paper in 2007.
