Closing Reception
Thursday, July 14th from 6-9pm
Tanya Rynd is proud to present 24 paintings and a collection of prints as the first solo show at Basin Gallery & Studios in Red Hook. The show is the masterpiece series called “Don’t Step On My Crown” with a span of work from 1995-2022.
Basin Gallery & Studios is cofounded by artists and Red Hook residents Jaimie Walker & Liz Galvin.
Based in DUMBO, Brooklyn since 1995, Tanya is notably a part of the dynamic and vibrant pioneering art force that influenced the neighborhood over many decades.
Rynd’s paintings wield a poetic tour de force, exposing a mythic examination of the self and a larger translation of humanity. Many of the works are self-portraits. Here the self, the model, crawls right up and over the proscenium; she slips right into the paint then turns back and looks at the painter and the viewer.
Rynd speaks directly to the human psyche, referring to her paintings as “the unspoken stories, love letters to the world and to myself.” Tanya Rynd is an accomplished oil painter and a fine art printer focusing primarily on monoprints. She has worked with master printer Marina Ancona of Ten Grand Press for over twenty years.
