A new film by Eric Minh Swenson

SANTA ANA, CA - Fourth Element Gallery is pleased to present Jane Bauman’s FloraBau, opening August 4 and on view through August 24, 2018. The exhibition, a survey of work from Bauman’s series of the same name, features mixed media collage paintings that focus on the elements of desert droughts and drowning floods, highlighting their duality and raising to question the necessity of water as an “invaluable resource.” Through the manipulation of photographs—with mindful attention to juxtaposition and the altering presence of multiple layers of paint—Bauman’s work emphasizes the fact that nature is not a beast we can so easily tame. The exhibition coincides with the release of the 76-page full-color catalogue, FloraBau, which the artist will be signing at the opening reception. 
Currently based out of Huntington Beach, Bauman is a native of Southern California and has exhibited her work internationally. She received her MFA in 1980 from the San Francisco Art Institute and is a professor of art at Coastline Community College.
