Artist Exhibitions/Opportunities
2024 - Mother Tongue Magazine, Issue No. 7, Page 11.
2024 - MEPAINTSME - Slices, the 25 works included in this show give us a sampling of each artist's practice -- a slice or sliver, so to speak, of their recent imaginings. Figurative subjects play prominently in the show, from the light-filled romantic works of Laura López Balza, Christopher Davison, and Aurélie Salvert, to the curiously seductive works of Joseba Eskubi, Gosia Machon, and Alexandra Duprez. Abstraction finds its place in the geometric works on paper by Elevator Teeth and German artist Ramon Keimig and within the intricate floral compositions of Casey Jex Smith and David Joel Kitcher. Printed editions by Joakim Drescher and Oliver McConnie conjure creatures in precise form, while artists Nacho Eterno, Rachel Cope, and Robert Kraiss take a painterly approach to their embrace of symbolism. October 10 - November 11, 2024.
