The art of John Register (1939-1996) portrayed twentieth century America with unique clarity. In his paintings of empty coffee shops in Los Angeles, old hotels in Chicage, and Southwestern bus stations, the artist beckons the viewer to make a personal connection to isolation and stillness. Light and color in these works conjure an emotional dissonance tinged with nostalgia and hope.
