Christopher Martin Hoff returns to the Linda Hodges Gallery in September for his fifth solo exhibition. Titled "One to One," Hoff's exhibition will feature new plein air paintings from locations in Seattle.
Three major themes predominate Hoff's new paintings; a formal constraint of symmetry, totemic messaging through signs, graffiti and advertising, and the "sacred spaces" of gardens. Each theme is explored in paintings rendered on site in Hoff's meticulous detail and exquisite draftsmanship. In particular, the artist's ability to capture the rain reflected light of the Pacific Northwest is extraordinary. Hoff creates paintings that excel in connecting people to places, and his talent for signifying meaning in the overlooked imbues his work with a fresh intelligence rare in painting.
Christopher Martin Hoff received a B.F.A. in 1998 from the Savannah College of Art and Design in Savannah, Georgia. His work is in the permanent collection of the City of Seattle, and he was awarded the Elizabeth Greenshields Foundation Award to pursue a project documenting the reconstruction of the World Trade Center in New York City. Hoff is currently featured in the group exhibition, "Seattle as Collector, Seattle Office of Arts and Cultural Affairs 40th Anniversary Exhibition," at the Seattle Art Museum in Seattle, WA.
