DESCRIPTION;ENCODING=QUOTED-PRINTABLE:<p>Katherine Thompson's oil painting, <i>Toro</i>, bursts forth with expressive dollops of tomato red, barely contained by a Rouault-like latticework that recalls stained-glass windows.  A halo of cerulean envelops the composition, cradling it like a baby. Thompson's work in this vein reads as pure abstraction, while pieces such as <i>Mindscape</i> come across as abstracted landscapes.  While these medium-format works are inventively hued and composed, Thompson's smaller-scale paintings are not nearly as compelling. <i>Through Jan. 30.</i></p>
