“Drawing on the Bad River,” an exhibition of drawings and paintings by Mark Zimmerman, does what it says: it draws on time spent exploring and steeping in the Bad River’s incredible landscape. In varying degrees of abstraction, Zimmerman examines the look, feel, and subsequent memories of a storied landscape in the heart of South Dakota. The drawings are as much an exploration of the possibilities afforded by graphite as of the landscape itself. Likewise, Zimmerman’s paintings frequently push the limits of acrylic paint. “Drawing on the Bad River” is a labor of love awaiting explorers who enjoy that winding river valley together with the spaciousness of the High Plains and relish seeing them anew through an artist’s imagination.
