Douglas Pendleton (MFA Painting 2022) opens a new solo exhibition, After Party, at Louis Buhl & Co gallery in Detroit on Saturday, March 4, 2023. In his practice, Pendleton takes inspiration from objects and settings in his day-to-day life to forge whimsical and dense paintings that offer viewers a rich and immersive visual experience.

‘[My practice] is not just about illustrating a scene, it’s about creating a sort of visual poetry where part of the appreciation of the paintings is just viewing them [for their abstract qualities]—looking at the passages of paint that have been laid down and appreciating [the works] sheerly on a level of color and form.” – Douglas Pendleton

Douglas Pendleton: After Party is on view from March 4 through April 26, 2023.
