LANCE AUSTIN OLSEN
Olsen (b. 1943) is a painter, printmaker, and composer. His work focuses on the dialogue between his abstract visual art, and parallel work in experimental audio composition.
The use of collaged and repurposed pieces of earlier work, a hallmark of Olsen’s large-scale paintings, is echoed in his approach to printmaking where a single matrix is continuously repurposed to create new works.
JAMIE DROUIN
Canadian artist Jamie Drouin (b. 1970) is known for his contemplative and minimalist artworks influenced by the natural world.
Drouin combines the traditions of still life with the aesthetics of post-minimalism, leading the viewer into experiences of stillness and introspection. Drouin’s deliberate use of small-scale artworks not only breaks from the conventions of contemporary art, but functions to create a charged and private experience between the viewer, the visual tactility of the material surfaces, and the wall it sits on.
