Ron van der Ende, 727, 2008, bas relief/wood, 122" x 55" x 6.3"
Head to the OKOK Gallery for the opening weekend of a small but fabulous one man show - Motor Memory. Ron van der Ende is from the Netherlands and this is his first solo show in the US. He builds his structures out of salvaged wood. (This plane is ten feet wide.) The color of the wood is never changed by Ron. He pays close attention to how the original color adds the illusion of light and shadow - painting with wood. Check out the hint of Boeing's logo in this close up.
