William Steiger continues to explore topics of landscape, architecture and evolvement of the early 20th century in this series of new oil paintings and works on paper. With his laser-like attention Steiger focuses on the man-made parts notable for their simple and elegant design, those architectural and mechanical pieces of our world that are not only functional and beautiful but also a little nostalgic. This imagery is from deep within a modernism now fading; but, as Steiger makes clear, not quite out of sight as we have led ourselves to believe.
