Mark Mulhern currently has an exhibition of New Work in the gallery.  In addition to the paintings in his Bathers series, Mulhern has taken a special interest in dogs and their owners, focusing on Dog Shows in several of the works.  The oil painting pictured above is titled Dog Show and measures 60×70 inches.  This subject lends itself perfectly to Mark’s interest in showing the evolution of a painting.  As Mark states, “The risks, erasures, revisions, and resolutions that go into the work are layered in its strata.  The end result is the sum of this history.  I want my paintings to speak to this process.”  New Work is Mark Mulhern‘s seventh solo show with the Tory Folliard Gallery.  See Mark Mulhern’s exhibition online here.
