Limited Gallery is delighted to announce its latest exhibit, BLISS:
IGNORANCE, opening at 4pm, Saturday, April 25, 2009. The show features
works on canvas and mixed media by BLISS, a self-described "horde" of art-makers
that "runs on pure ultra-concentrated joy."
Employing hyper-colored spray paint, stencils and a saucy sense of humor, BLISS adorns
canvases and found objects - such as liberated road signs and defunct satellite
dishes - with impulsive and absurd alterations.
The pieces
included in the IGNORANCE exhibit are commentaries, with varying degrees
of subtlety, on contemporary consumeristic culture. In their styles, execution
and subject matters, these works nod to Pop art as well as Street art and
graffiti... However, as the title of the show indicates, they can also
be enjoyed without knowledge of art history, technique or other contexts.
Key components
of the BLISS: IGNORANCE show include Rinse and Repeat, a series
of paintings on canvas featuring a new take on Andy Warhol's Marilyn Monroe
works from the 1960's, and Give and Take, a dishy installation inviting
viewer participation.
The exhibit will be on view/available for purchase at the gallery in Nederland, Colorado April 25 through May 24, 2009.
