"rEvolution" Exhibition

This event has ended.
At Gallery Onetwentyeight
Media: Painting, Other, Performance Art

Nine artists will be participating in this month-long happening. Presenting - improvisation, collaboration, freedom, fun, fake fur, found objects, found artists, trumpets, guitars, postal codes, hair portraits, cyber-violence, jazz riffs, painted dresses, T-Rex (the band)…and more. Everything is happening!

The self proclaimed Jewdhist Priest, Michelle Blitstein will be making her Gallery Onetwentyeight debut showing her revelatory and intense paintings, "The E of K.P." Her obsession with hair has inspired this series of almost hallucinatory portraits. The always unpredictable, Sean Fuller will surprise us yet again by exploring the aesthetics of violence in his mixed media collages with empty squares replacing the brutal truth. Curator, writer, assemblagist, and globally known from Google Maps, Jefre Harwoods, will be premiering the Glam Rock “Paintings” - his bejeweled homage to youth and Roxy Music. An avid motorboat enthusiast, Anna Murphy-Lang will continue a Fluxus-like take on mail art by sending a new mixed media postcard to the gallery every day from the nation’s capital. Kaitlin Martin, will come up with something colorful, layered... compelling. Hailing from Staten Island via Columbia, Francisco Osorio will set the urban landscape, and hopefully the gallery, on fire with his vividly colored paintings and small found object sculptures. The ever elusive, and globetrotting Mary Sobiechowski will be showing some brand new stunning and mysterious New York nightscapes. Rojeh Torosian will take us on a wild ride starting with a “sofa size” landscape painting and ending in a song. The mysterious Etna Vesuvius may show her enigmatic sculptures or not.

In this month-long exhibition the artists hope to surprise everyone and themselves. Nine artists, so different and so new, come together.
