There’s a small but intriguing show of abstract work from Boston-based Haitian painter Renold Laurent, currently artist in residence at Brown’s Center for the Study of Slavery and Justice. Three new paintings are on display along with a dozen older pieces, dating back to the turn of the millennium. Deep blues predominate in the newer pieces, which evoke the machinations of industry, although I was most drawn to the less colorful pieces like The Unfurling, in which human forms seem to be sucked into a rocky vista.
