Bert Green Fine Art is proud to present its first solo exhibition featuring the work of Pennsylvania-based artist Dan Barry. Known for his intricate and intimate compositions, Barry's work draws viewers into a richly textured world built from the remnants of the past. By incorporating found objects, aged ephemera, and vintage frames into his pieces, Barry constructs a visual language that is both personal and enigmatic. His use of layered materials serves as a narrative device, embedding history and memory into each composition and inviting the viewer to explore the subtle interplay of texture, time, and meaning.

Dan Barry’s artworks often function on a smaller scale, emphasizing a close and focused engagement with the viewer. The compact size of the works demands careful observation, encouraging an intimate relationship between the audience and the art. Through meticulous mark making and the integration of handwritten or printed text, Barry’s pieces become meditative explorations of identity, legacy, and the materiality of language. Each work tells a quiet, layered story that unfolds gradually, revealing its secrets through repeated viewing and contemplation.

To accompany the exhibition, Bert Green Fine Art has released a limited-edition archival pigment print of one of Barry’s earlier works. This edition highlights the continued relevance and resonance of his practice, offering collectors and viewers an opportunity to own a piece that encapsulates his distinctive approach. With this show, the gallery underscores its commitment to showcasing artists who merge traditional media with conceptual rigor, and affirms Dan Barry’s unique voice in contemporary art.
