Closing: Dan Barry: As Funny As It May Seem and Mikey Mosher: Crossroads
@ Bert Green Fine Art
8 S Michigan Ave Suite 620 Chicago IL 60603
Opening Saturday, June 14th, from 2PM - 5PM
On view through Saturday, June 14th
Bert Green Fine Art is pleased to present our first solo show by Pennsylvania-based artist Dan Barry, and our second show by Chicago artist Mikey Mosher. Both artists also have limited edition prints in the show.
Dan Barry combines found objects, ephemera, and vintage frames with mark making and text to produce artworks densely layered with meaning and textural complexity. Tending toward smaller sizes, they engage the viewer on an intimate scale, and invite a dialogue with the work through close inspection. For this exhibition, BGFA has published a limited-edition archival pigment print of a reproduction of one of his earlier works.
Mikey Mosher intersects materials and techniques which are not normally combined; he is using carpentry, CNC routing, sewing, found materials, symbolic objects, and textiles to reference multiple historical styles of art making which are rarely ever seen together: Op Art, assemblage, quilting, fabric arts, and abstraction. Taking advantage of contemporary access to all kinds of materials and historical knowledge, Mosher is synthesizing compositions which would have been improbable in earlier eras.
