111908rileyexhibition.jpgWe recently had the opportunity to visit the Chicago studio of painter Bruce Riley. The large-scale paintings (some up to 6') show the influence of the natural sciences and physics on the work. With a strikingly graphic repetition of shapes and colors, the results are stunning in their depth and texture, and would look amazing at home.
