Provenance / HistoryThis work is a continuance of visual meditations on consciousness as a fundamental property of space/time energy. matter arises from and returns to an implicate field of potential. Images emerge from increasingly complex formations of simple visual systems....this approach comes from continuing conversations with scientists, engineers and technologists who are increasingly aware of the need for multiple points of view to understand large data sets. 

Story / Additional InfoArtist collaborated with biologists, neuroscientists and computational specialists for many years and this work demonstrates the resulting complexities of those exchanges. Like E.O.Wilson many of us seek the unity of observation and knowledge.

Kerns studied with the noted Abstract-Expressionist painter, Grace Hartigan and through the elder artist came to know and work with many artists of that generation including, Phillip Guston, Willem de Kooning, James Brooks, Ernest Briggs, Richard Diebenkorn and Sam Francis. Born in 1945 in Richmond, Virginia, Kerns started painting at a young age. He attended the Richmond Professional Institute, receiving his BFA in 1967. He went on to the Maryland Institute, where he studied with painter Grace Hartigan. Here, Kerns received the Hoffberger Fellowship and graduated with an MFA in 1969. Kerns first gained exposure in 1972, when he was commissioned by art collector Larry Aldrich to paint 100 paintings over the course of the year as gifts.That same year, Kerns had his first solo art show at the AM Sachs Gallery in New York. Over the course of the 1970s and 80s, Kerns formed a close partnership with the Rosa Esman Gallery and exhibited ten solo shows there. Of his work in the late 1970s and early 80s, gallery coordinator Judith Stein says, "He works slowly, creating no more than ten large paintings a year. His media are acrylic, sand, and thread, the last used to stitch together sections of canvas. Often plywood or upsom board is used as support." Listings wanted.
