CURVED LINES

Paintings by Bill Mittler

 

July 18 to August 2, 2015

 

 “It is only because of our not knowing that we can feel a purpose in life. This is precisely the charm of a curved line.”

–Beopjeong, Korean Zen master

 

This exhibit of the paintings of Bill Mittler at the Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery of the Art League of Long Island encompasses the artist’s long-time concern with color, form, content and the total visual and emotional experience of art, reflecting of his spiritual journey through life. As a painter, this journey has transitioned from realism to surrealism, to color-field paintings, and now to bold and dramatic abstraction.

 

Bill Mittler’s formal training began at an early age at the Butler Institute of American Art in Youngstown, Ohio. He continued his studies at Mount Union College in Alliance, Ohio, and then at the Cleveland Art Institute. After moving to New York he studied at the Art Students League.  His work has been exhibited in both group and solo shows and is in a number of private collections.  He currently resides in Northport.

 

Mittler’s large-scale paintings will be on view from July 18 through August 2, 2015, with a reception for the artist on Sunday, July 19, from 3 – 5 pm.

 

The Jeanie Tengelsen Gallery is open free of charge Monday through Thursday 9am – 9pm, Friday 9am – 4pm and weekends from 11am – 4pm. The Art League is located at 107 East Deer Park Road in Dix Hills. For more information call  or visit.
