Posted by sleepboy, June 21, 2009

After his successful exhibitionÂ at Roq la Rue gallery in Seattle last year, Victor Castillo opens another show next month at Merry Karnowsky Gallery.Â The title of the show “Gameland” refers to the landscapes in this body of work,Â to “lost paradise or the Promised Land having become a sinister playground.”Â As always, there areÂ ominious and political overtones to Castillo’s work, often painting children in “dark scenes where toys become weapons and cruelty replaces innocence.” We are looking forward to the Chilean (now based in Spain)Â artist’s first […]

Los Angeles artist Korin Faught’s second show at Corey Helford Gallery entitled “Echo” opens on June 27th.Â Faught first came to our attention when we saw a haunting series of paintings that she describes as “…inspired by Puritan, Amish and other Christian fundamentalists.”Â So, this new body of work came as somewhat of a surprise as she does not shy away from a more honest look at the human form. Still, we see Faught’s distinctive palette and style in these first glimpses of the show […]
