Charles Gaines

Our clients were deeply moved by the American artist Charles Gaines’  explorations of Tantric Buddhist philosophy, which have greatly influenced his signature grid technique. In the Tiergarten Series, Gaines extended his celebrated Numbers and Trees Series, by capturing trees from specific locations (in this case the famed Berlin Tiergarten) and arranging them on a grid using numbers and colors. Each etching is titled with a different month, emphasizing the temporal aspect of the subject he codifies.
