Watermark set to open new exhibit Feb. 1
BEMIDJI The Watermark Art Center will open the exhibit Unutterable Space, Landscapes of Northern Minnesota by Mark Granlund on Monday, Feb. 1. Unutterable Space is an exploration of the fundamental issues of experience, particularly with regard to northern Minnesota landscapes. Granlund s oil paintings focus on the point of convergence between experience and construct, layers and shape, and the metaphysical landscape where energies of a scene distill into patterns, a release said.
Granlund’s regular visits to the Minnesota/Canada border, where he explores the landscape of his father’s childhood, have forged an attentiveness to its unique combination of water, rocks, trees and sky.
