Tomorrow night (October 9th) at the 557C W. 23rd St. location of Jonathan LeVine Gallery  in New York, a new solo from Alex Gross (interviewed) will be opening. Entitled Future Tense, the new body of work continues to explore mankind’s place in a changing world overcome with advertising, propaganda, and new technology. Along with sublime new oil paintings that explore themes of consumerism and the inundation of media in our lives, Gross will also be contributing another selection of his popular cabinet card works. A new monograph, featuring 40 paintings completed between 2010 and 2014 and sharing the title of the show will be released as well.

AM recently had the opportunity to stop by his home studio in Los Angeles leading up to the show where the artist graciously gave use look at the new pieces he will be sending to the show. This included the painting above which has elements which should be familiar to any Candy Crush addict as well as a sweet set of Alice in Wonderland cabinet card pieces (as well his collection of vintage cabinet cards). See shots of all this and more below…
