showed up on time or late Brian Leo's new exhibition, Brian Leo is Every Soldier in the World, on view at the Leo Kesting Gallery, is what happens when one of New York's most recognizable young artists mixes popular imagery, global terror and irony, with a twist of Day-Glo surrealism. The title of the show references Facebook and its personal updates which contrast the mundane to the illuminative. brian has been exhibitng a deluge of up to 500 smalll paintings at shows for a while, but it it is at this moment that he has started to select certain imagery and blown them to the scale of 4'x6'. Don't panic. Though probably by the time you have read this, you have already tried a few things that haven't worked, for next time try not to panic and pull at the splinter (unless plenty of it is showing). about mozart recently LeoKesting Gallery is proud to present Brian's 5th exhibition here! The show entitled, "Brian is every soldier in the world" parodies the timeliness gift and ridiculous misfortune of facebook omniprescence. The title, in flux, references the pop surrealist objects of jettison/meditation in Brian's paintings. |
