R.C. Baker “'… and Nixon’s coming' & the draft"
ZONE: CONTEMPORARY ART
This event has ended.
R.C. Baker’s first solo exhibition with the gallery “ ...and Nixon’s coming” combines art, fiction, and design to create a multifaceted narrative that arcs from the Moscow show trials of 1937 to President Nixon’s resignation, in 1974. Divided into four sections, the work views the turbulent artistic and social ferment of the mid-20th century through the experiences of the story’s main character, Kirby Holland, and through his artwork, including academic drawings and studies after the old masters, comic-book illustrations, and amalgams of Abstract Expressionism, Pop, and graphics.
