Patrick Brennan "Moon Drawings"
The Wild Project
This event has ended.
Presented by Halsey Mckay Gallery, Moon Drawings, is a new body of work on paper and recently finished iMovies by Patrick Brennan. Made with the same casual splicing, snipping, camoflauging approach as his signature paintings, these outlets find the artist on new surfaces, terra firma.
This event marks the release of Mirrors for Eyes, published by Halsey Mckay Gallery and the artist. The 40 page, full-color, monograph includes an interview with Amy Sillman, a poem for the artist by Lauren VHS, installation images as well as a portfolio of paintings.
