The show opens with a cocktail reception with the artist Saturday, February 6, starting at 5PM in Galeria/Atelier in the Fabrica La Aurora. It truly takes an artist to confront one with the intricacy of our inner workings. Walking the room of Dahlke’s exhibit it is as if the artist self-dissects himself for all to see. First, we see the diligent, studied, figurative work of the disciplined student of art. There are perfect lines and clear color palates and proportion and perspective. There is a controlled passion felt in this work and there is a break from pure representational painting with the ever slightest surrealist element in the image, only noticeable upon closest inspection.
