Shooting Gallery Presents: A Solo Show From Peter Gronquist & A Project Space From Morgan Slade
SEE EVENT DETAILS
at White Walls Gallery / Shooting Gallery
(see times)
The evolution of desire through greed and consumerism is explored with a bit of irony and humor in the artist's large-scale works, where taxidermied animals have their antlers sculpted into objects like replica weaponry or corporate logos, often before being gold-plated. The majestic beauty of the animals themselves sometimes stands at odds with the cold, sharp-edged beauty of glittering metal, but other works strike a softer chord.
Born in 1979, Peter Gronquist is a visual artist living in Portland, Oregon. Gronquist attended the School of Visual Arts for two years, after which he completed his Bachelors of Art at the San Francisco Art Institute in 2001. Gronquist has exhibited in galleries across the West Coast and New York.
