The Long Horizon is an exhibition of paintings, pastels and watercolors inspired by the intertwining of Robbi Firestone's life
The Long Horizon: Solo Exhibiton of 50+ artworks.
My father served thirty years in the United States Marine Corps.
Honor was a requirement in our home. A practice: integrity, service, the expectation that the people around you would rise to meet it.
I learned to always deliver my best. I could not always demand it of others. Yet when someone failed that standard, I gave pause.
My studio and art practice stands by that code to this day.

Into That Light
There is a front hall at Gallery 215 in Taos.
Thick adobe walls. Ancient wooden floors. Carvings.
Space holding silence the way only very old walls do.
Home to Untitled Orange and Yellow, 1994. Agnes Martin. Acrylic and graphite on canvas. Sixty inches by sixty inches. A grid painting from the final decade of her life, having already re-rooted in New Mexico. She stripped everything unnecessary from her practice. She became one of the most consequential painters of the twentieth century.
Humbly, on July 18, my work steps into that hall.
