Opening reception: Friday, September 2, 6 - 9 PM

Magic Beans is pleased to present Winston Chmielinski’s first solo exhibition with the gallery. “How to Let Go” comprises paintings, objects, videos, and photographs, which borrow from each other in material, method, and modality.

Chmielinski’s paintings oscillate between the meticulous and impressionistic, reflective of one another in surface rather than subject, in brushstrokes rather than in forms. Some paintings are hung in pairs to further sound out this polyphony of edges where they meet in unexpected harmonies.
