RYAN BROWNING: FIERY FURNACES

 Hi Bloggers--long time no speak! We wanted to share the work of ceramic artist Ryan Browning, which is part of our current exhibit 'Fiery Furnaces,' up now at the gallery. Come by and see, or check out our site here. 

RYAN BROWNING (born 1981, Houston, Texas) lives in Doha, Qatar. His paintings have a way of simplifying imagery to a cartoonish state without losing the specificity of the objects he is portraying. Often his imaginary spaces are rendered without figures, but hint at their presence, as if they have just walked out of frame. His work has been written about in The New York Times, ARTnews, ArtMaze Magazine, Art F City, and others. He has exhibited at ADA Gallery (Richmond, VA), Mother Gallery (Beacon, NY), Resort Baltimore (Baltimore, MD), Mulherin Pollard (NYC), Allegra LaViola (NYC), VOLTA NY (NYC), The Fire Station Museum (Doha, Qatar), Menage Gallery (St. Petersburg, RU), and others. He is represented by ADA Gallery and is an Associate Professor at Virginia Commonwealth University in Qatar.
