Pittsburgh, PA: June 26 - July 21, 2012 New Hampshire based artist David Nelson will debut his coloristic, pattern-based paintings, "Of Choice and Chance," at Box Heart Gallery from June 26 through July 21, 2012. Join us on Saturday, June 30th at 4:30 as Nelson speaks about his artistic process. The opening reception will immediately follow from 5-8pm. It is free and open to the public!    Of Choice and Chance:  Painter David Nelson investigates life's balance of control and randomness by spattering primary colors through a system of objects controlled by random numbers or chance. The paint falls through a grid of wooden squares, some of which are removed using random numbers generated courtesy of www.random.org.  As the colors mix pointillistically, a painting emerges with a will of its own. Nelson's paintings are an experiment into the meticulously controlled accident; a process of achieving a specific vision through chaotic means; and a look into the paradoxical balance that each of us - even God - faces every day.   Exhibition Details:  June 26 - July 21, 2012  Of Choice and Chance - exploring the borderlands of intention and occurrence -  Paintings by David Nelson  Artist Talk: Saturday, June 30th at 4:30pm  Reception to follow: 5-8pm  Free and open to the public!
