‘Fluttering meaning’
“Pachinko Mon Amour 3’’ (acrylic and watercolor), by Steven Bogart, in his show “Pachinko Mon Amour and other inventions,’’ at Kingston Gallery, Boston, Nov. 6-30.
The gallery says:
“The show’s vibrant, surreal paintings fuse humor, abstraction, and satire, drawing inspiration from the kinetic energy of pinball, with their bright lights, rhythmic sounds, and unpredictable movements, and Japanese Pachinko to probe humanity’s fascination with distraction and play. In these new works Bogart playfully explores the tension between organic geometry and imagined perspectives.’’
He says:
“I invite viewers into spaces where meaning flutters like a shimmering, ricocheting pinball, serving as a foil to the rigid architectures of logic.’’
