The seven artists in Marsha Mateyka Gallery’s “Drawing” are regulars there, and several are offering work whose style and concerns are familiar from recent shows there. That’s not detrimental to the fine pieces by Nancy Wolf, whose elaborate tableaux combine modernist architectural motifs with classical Western and Chinese elements; in one larger drawing, baroque formal gardens promenade atop a series of blank office blocks. Equally strong are Stephen Talasnik’s richly textured semi-architectural renderings, which combine precision and play, and Jae Ko’s white-on-black, glue-and-ink spirals, which mirror the contours of her better-known sculptures.

Less expected but just as expressive are drawings by Craig Dennis and Christopher French. French’s warping grid of red lines, punctuated by blue dots, suggests “Tron”, a non-Euclidean geometry and an expanding universe. Dennis’s large piece consists of multiple overlapping figures, each beginning with a tiny circle. Working freehand, the artist renders concentric lines that become increasingly eccentric as he magnifies each glitch when drawing the next orbit. If the artwork is in part an illustration of its own process, it also has a craggy, complex beauty that’s closer to natural forms than to the sterile perfection of an immaculate circle.
