“Lost in the Thicket” opened last night in Culver City and AM was on hand at LeBasse Projects to take in Nate Frizzell’s solo show. Our first impression of this new body of work (during an earlier studio visit) was one of appreciation at the increasing maturity in this young artist’s talent. Seeing the paintings in the gallery setting definitely fortified our opinion, especially after seeing how all the work played off each other and the installation (a tree branch from Nate’s parents’ backyard fashioned to resemble the background foliage in his paintings – graffiti included).
Fans (some with animal masks on) must have agreed as the show has almost sold out. Check out all the pics after the jump…
The showstopper
Running with the wolves...
The tree installation
Wolf and his victims
See if you can guess who this is in the mask. If you can, we will mail you one of the gocco prints that were available during the opening from Nate. Example below, but will be a different number.
