Thiel College’s Weyers-Sampson Gallery to exhibit New York City artist Kyle Utter’s work

GREENVILLE, Pa.-- New York City-based artist Kyle Utter’s exhibition “Digressions” will be on display in Thiel College’s Weyer-Sampson Art Gallery starting Jan. 22 through March 8.

A gallery talk and reception is scheduled for 2 p.m. Jan. 22.

Utter’s paintings depict chimerical landscapes and spaces rendered with mathematical perspective. They are populated with objects, letters, and signs drawn from memory, direct observation and found imagery. While his work can be both playful and unsettling, the tone of his work reveals itself slowly as the viewer continues to observe it.

Utter lives in Queens, N.Y. In 2018, he completed his Master of Fine Art at Hunter College in Manhattan. In 2011, he earned a Bachelor of Fine Art from Pratt Institute in the Bronx. His work has been featured in the Bronx Museum’s 6th AIM Biennial and the SPRING/BREAK Art Show. He has been an artist in residence at the Blue Mountain Center and the Byrdcliffe Guild in New York state.

The Weyers-Sampson serves the College community and regional residential communities in northwestern Pennsylvania and northeastern Ohio. The exhibitions and gallery presentations are free and open to the public.

For more information about the exhibition or the gallery, contact Professor of Art and Curator of Art Sean McConnor, M.F.A.
