Wally Workman Gallery presents "Common Drugs and the Fantasies They Produce," their seventh solo show with local painter Ian Shults.
Taunting societal taboos with bold brushstrokes and sly editing skills, Shults’ figurative paintings are lusciously cinematic. Each piece is broken up by planes and layers of paint, causing an asymmetry that serves to break up the painting's space as well as the layers of time captured. Shults’ paintings recall a bygone era when the sheen of the American Dream dulled; his focus, the dynamic between the patriarchy and feminism. This show, filled with lust, loss and libations, conveys a sense of unabashed mischief.
Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display through March 31.
