Fossilized toy car, mixed media
You are invited to an opening on June 13th at Ernst and Young. The work I am showing is from a series called "Fossils of the Anthropocene." Here's the idea behind the artwork:
Geologic eras are marked by mass extinctions. Some geologists say we are living in a new geologic era, the age of man. These paintings/sculptures are meant to evoke the fossils that might be found in 100+ million years. The paintings are mixed media made from linen, pigment, marble dust, cast objects, varnish, and resin.
I have been called away to work in Washington DC, so I will not be at the opening but Tamara will be there to represent me. There will also be exciting work from a Hungarian-born artist named Zsolt Mathe. I hope that you can come, as I have put a lot of work into the series over the last half year, and would love to share it with you. For those of you who cannot come, I will eventually put together a website and promise to let you know by the work of the week post when it is done.
Here are the details for the opening:
