Robert Petrick: My paintings connect the lyricism of language with the vibrancy of urban culture, especially the rich milieu around the East Village and Alphabet City. Rendered in colors and geometries that echo the movements that have shaped the aesthetic narratives of the 20th and 21st centuries, each series is a new verse in my ongoing poetic exploration of life, drawing inspiration from the architecture and infrastructure that frame the ever-evolving landscape of art and design. My paintings and pictograms serve as a bridge between legacies of the past and the vivid, living present.
