The Center for Contemporary Art, Sacramento is proud to present Light and Presence, an exhibition of paintings and photographs, respectively, by Boyd Gavin and Matthias Geiger. While executed in different media, the figurative work of these two artists resonates. Both explore qualities of light, color and the human condition, combining intimacy and restraint.

Boyd Gavin is a long-time Sacramento painter just entering mid-career whose new figurative paintings mark a turning point in his oeuvre with their emphasis on evocative, somber color and atmosphere.

Matthias Geiger is a German photographer and is Professor of Photography in the Art Department at UC Davis. His large-scale photographs comment on man's relationship to nature, and the presence of the figure in natural and constructed environments.
