This event has ended.

Olsonʼs work articulates the experience of the individual in bold shades and thick impasto brushwork. Faces and figures pop from the walls as the artist investigates how his subjectsʼ inner aspect radiates through as color and form. The exhibition title, "Le Pope of Fools," speaks to Olsonʼs ability to assume the loaded responsibility of portraying an individual without forcing a heavy burden on the viewer. At once focused and playful, serious and sensuous, "Le Pope of Fools" highlights Ben Olsonʼs well-honed talent to offer a glimpse into the paradoxical world of the individualʼs inner existence.
