John Coburn “Fairlane Marauder”
Open Source Gallery
This event has ended.
In a group of new work situated between painting and sculpture entitled: “Fairlane Marauder” the artist John Coburn has produced a series of curiously shaped panel pieces the tones and finish of which resemble mass produced objects. The design language of things as diverse as automobiles, weaponry, electric guitars and heraldic shields is evoked in these works which reflect the playful menace of a culture that has imbued the objects of its daily peacetime consumption with a marshal spirit.
John Coburn who keeps a studio in Jersey City has lived and worked in New York City for the past 15 years. He received an MFA from the New York Academy of Art and before that a BFA from the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in Paris, France. This is the artist’s second solo show in New York.
