“Time Lapse” is a show of paintings by Aneet R. Fontes opening at Galería Cubana, 357 Commercial St. in Provincetown, on Thursday, Aug. 19 and running through Aug. 30. Working from photographs, Fontes paints the street corners of Havana, Miami, New York, and Provincetown in glorious one-point perspective. At a distance, the paintings reveal their source material, but step in close and the urban bustle fractures into a tapestry of brushwork. Fontes likes to exploit reflections — in a puddle or a glass facade — that mirror the scene in reverse or upside down. It’s a neat trick that shifts our perspective. The colors are often hot, sometimes muted, but always sharp and clear as they carve out long, deep shadows along the streets. It’s all there — movement, drama, noise, heat, life.
