Guy Diehl's The Quiet Eye at Dolby Chadwick Gallery

Dolby Chadwick Gallery in San Francisco presents The Quiet Eye, a solo exhibition of recent paintings by Guy Diehl. The show runs from [dates not specified in source]. Diehl's practice embodies a non-hierarchical gaze, giving equal luminous attention to everyday objects like a baguette, tangerines in cellophane, or a take-out container as to art historical references. His paintings engage in dialogues with artists across history, including Cotán, Giorgione, Malevich, Delaunay, O'Keeffe, Morandi, and Schiele. These artists appear as interlocutors, their images integrated into still lifes featuring bottles, shells, glass marbles, and wrapped parcels. The exhibition emphasizes looking as a form of reverence without discrimination.
