Mishael Coggeshall-Burr
Paris Impossible
May 18 - July 5, 2020
Opening Reception: Thursday, May 21 at 12:30 pm EST
Abigail Ogilvy Gallery is proud to present Paris Impossible, our first solo exhibition of paintings by Mishael Coggeshall-Burr. This body of work is inspired by his love of travel and adventure, with a particular focus on the Parisian cityscape. Artworks set in Paris hold special significance to the artist; while living in London, Coggeshall-Burr and his wife often traveled to the city, walking for days on foot in order to absorb every part of Parisian life. Last year, he returned with his wife to celebrate their 15th wedding anniversary, which happened to be just weeks before the Paris riots started and Notre Dame burned. Coggeshall-Burr remarks, “memories are of a time 'before'--now a common sentiment everywhere.” Memories become a form of solace, especially during the current global crisis.
