Don Crow is currently a design teacher at Virginia Commonwealth University in Qatar. Trained as an oil painter in the 1970s, and influenced by the movements within abstraction from expressionism to minimalism, Crow has exhibited regionally for 30 years. The pieces in this exhibition come from a new body of work, which continues his interest in the distinctions between art and design, in the languages of presentation and display, and in the viewer’s participatory act of (re)creating emotion and meaning.
