Dan Schimmel

Dan Schimmel is a painter and printmaker who works in Philadelphia and New York. Schimmel’s work focuses on the wandering line as it creates shapes and contours across the painted surface. The artist’s new work utilizes blue and white tape as a filter to view other paintings that lie beneath.
iCity (2011) captures the post-industrial city from multiple perspectives, coupled with a sense of boundlessness. A similar overall blue appearance is seen in C.Mariner (2011) known as Cosmos Mariner, conveying a seafaring expedition. Punctuated with several figurative illustrations, the space of this piece captures an array of earthly and celestial currents.
In June 2011 the LGTripp Gallery in Philadelphia exhibited Tape & Paint, a solo show of new work by the artist.
