Sign Language & The Movies II

SEE EVENT DETAILS
Please join us on Nov. 2nd as we present two unique solo shows: "Sign Language" by Terry Thompson and "The Movies 2" by William Arvin

For nearly twenty years, Terry Thompson has focused primarily on paintings of old neon signs that have somehow avoided the wrecking ball—signs that have lived. Thompson sees these sculptural signs as historically and emotionally charged metaphors for unrelenting time. He strives to reveal the hidden beauty of these banal, rusty relics, by rendering them masterfully in oil paint.

The main feature of William Arvin's new solo exhibition, The Movies II, are photo realistic oil paintings of still images from a short film created and directed by the artist. In addition to the film and paintings, Arvin has also composed the score, which will be displayed and available as limited edition, vinyl LP's. Excerpts from the film will be continuously looped and played on early '90's TV/VHS monitors alongside the paintings from their corresponding scene/s.
