‘Abstract symbolism’

“Voyage Drawing” (mixed media on paper), by Robert S. Neuman (1926-2015), in the show “Robert S. Neuman: Works on Paper,’’ through Oct. 1, at the Childs Gallery, Boston.

The gallery says the show highlights Neuman's work in mixed media and on paper. “His modernist and at-the-time cutting edge artwork uses heavy abstract symbolism and color to deliver a captivating experience that is overwhelming and endlessly fascinating.’’ Mr. Neuman was based in Boston but spent summers on Mt. Desert Island, Maine.
