Some artists revel in paint's materiality. Some take that approach with stranger mediums - in this show, colored thread, Plexiglas, and polyester film spacers. Paint shows up, too. Artists include Bob Oppenheim, Carter Potter, Ulrich Wellmann, and Brian Zink.--Cate McQuaid, Globe Correspondent

There’s no paint involved in Carter Potter’s clever “Negative 6 (Landscape),’’ the first piece inside the front door of Howard Yezerski Gallery, and the keynote of the gallery’s summer group show, “Material Abstraction.’’ Potter has mounted strips of 70mm film across a wooden frame — the kind you would stretch a canvas over. Even though this isn’t a painting, it’s about painting much more than it’s about photography.
