Holly Johnson Gallery in Dallas will present the opening of "Tinies," an exhibition of work by Gael Stack, featuring new oil paintings on paper. Stack is one of the most accomplished American painters working today. Her 'tiny' paintings on paper are full of mystery, like intimate interior universes awash in cryptic messages and enigmatic figures. Her mark-making, both dreamy and unsettling, looks as if it could dissolve before it is fully formed - evidence of a mind in constant "shuffle" mode, randomly stumbling onto bits of the past. Every image, regardless of the medium, has a source. And while each body of work Stack creates has its own theme, the influences are fairly constant - and oddly apparent once you know them.

Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on view through May 5.
