Ternary at The Carrack, March 15

03/07/2013

I am pleased to announce I am taking part in a 3 person show in Durham, opening next week at The Carrack Modern Art in Durham.

Ternary: 3 Durham Abstract Painters is a show by three young artists unified in their bold use of color and commitment to working in Durham. Inspired by the Washington Color School, Joe McDonough, Ross Ford and Ryan McKellar wish to reignite a serious conversation about color and abstraction in Durham. The Carrack is located at 111 West Parrish St, Durham, NC 27701

Join us during the March 15th Third Friday in Durham to meet the artists, see the show and enjoy refreshments.…

This post is a little late due to a the cumulative effect of several late nights/early mornings followed by a 12 hour drive back to North Carolina. I tagged these photos if I knew the artist but there are plenty here I do not know. Please email me (ross@rossfordart.com) with the file name if you know the artist and it is not labeled.

I wasn’t able to find a website for Barbara. I desperately wanted to see her work after I saw the amazing necklace she was wearing. I did find this though and the address matches the business card she gave me.

12/05/2012

It would be an understatement to say that the amount and quality of the street art in Wynwood has increased dramatically since last year. There needs to be a stronger word. Hyper-dramatically? Anyways, the photos below are just a few snaps I took while walking around the neighborhood after I finished hanging my work at GAB studio. I will post pictures of the gallery once it is open but for now just feast your eyes on this small sampling of outdoor art I saw during a short walk today. …
