John Pomara is an American abstract artist who lives and works in Dallas, Texas. He was born in Dallas in 1952 and received a MFA and a BFA from East Texas State University; he also attended the Empire State Studio Arts Program, New York. The artist is represented by Horton Gallery in New York. John Pomara is interested in the role human error plays in technology, and his paintings intend to capture that concept visually. His abstract paintings depict blurs, glitches, and printing imperfections, contradicting our vision of modern technology as cold, rational, and without error.〔()〕 Entropy and mechanical failure are prevalent themes within his work; in his endeavors to visually represent these errors he utilizes printers, copy machines and the Internet.〔 Even the medium upon which he works is evocative of his underlying message, the industrial surfaces of the aluminum panels complimenting and enhancing his artistic vision. There are many who would argue that making mistakes is part of the creative process, and Pomara's work in part adheres to this sentiment, oftentimes inspired by the paint drips and spills that landed on the newspaper covering his studio floor. He currently teaches at University of Texas, Dallas. ==Solo exhibitions== *2013 ''off_Key''1, Horton Gallery, New York City, NY *2012 ''off_Key2'', Barry Whistler Gallery, Dallas, TX *2010 ''Arrival and Departure'', Barry Whistler Gallery, Dallas, TX *2007 ''Digital-Dating'', Barry Whistler Gallery, Dallas, TX *2006 ''96-tears'', Barry Whistler Gallery, Dallas, TX *2005 ''Fifteen Year Survey Exhibition'', Dallas Center for Contemporary Art, Dallas, TX *2004 ''i_liner'', Inman Gallery, Houston, TX *2002 ''Paintings'', Mark Moore Gallery, Santa Monica, CA *2002 ''Flat File'', Barry Whistler Gallery, Dallas, TX *2001 ''Concentrations'', Dallas Museum of Art, Dallas, TX *2000 ''Line Drive'', Barry Whistler Gallery, Dallas, TX *1998 Barry Whistler Gallery, Dallas, TX *1996 Eugene Binder Gallery, Long Island City, NY *1992 Eugene Binder Gallery, Dallas, TX *1991 Eugene Binder Gallery, Dallas, TX *1987 DW Gallery, Dallas, TX 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「John Pomara」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
