Abstract:
North Carolina artist Jim Starrett’s paintings and drawings will be on display in the North Carolina Gallery this fall. Dating from 1976 to 1983, Starrett’s work focuses on the failure of organized religion to actively oppose the Nazis during World War II. Of particular focus is the Catholic Church and Pope Pius XII’s lack of action. His works are full of symbolism and are marked by a hard-edged, linear geometry and loose brushwork.
