About

Brian Gross Fine Art is pleased to publish a catalog of the exhibition "Dana Hart-Stone: The Life and Times of Plaid", presented from January 11 – March 7, 2020. In this group of major new works, The Life and Times of Plaid is a 13 ft. mural comprised of 616 digitally altered vintage black and white images of everyday scenes of the American West arranged like pages of a giant photo album. In another development, Hart-Stone explores circular formats, creating round paintings that pulsate with his signature patterns derived from appropriated photographs. Through the collection, manipulation, and juxtaposition of vintage imagery, Hart-Stone explores themes of collective memory and nostalgia through abstraction and complex patterns. Born in Billings, Montana, Dana Hart-Stone attended Montana State University in Bozeman, and received his B.A. from San Francisco State University. His paintings can be found in the collections of the Crocker Art Museum, Sacramento, CA and the Monterey Museum of Art, CA.
