We know, we know, January isn't even over yet and we're zeroing in on February already. Well, it's just because we are so darn excited! We have such a beautiful January show up right now, it's true, "You Make Me Warm" definitely heated up January even on the coldest of nights, but what's the harm in making sure that everyone has something just as beautiful to look at when February comes? February 11th from 6:30pm-9:00pm we will be celebrating the opening for Jason Bard Yarmosky's first gallery solo show, "Elder Kinder", click here for the full press release. Jason has been working extremely hard on the works for this upcoming show which addresses the innocence at both ends of the generational spectrum. Yarmosky recruits his eager Brooklyn-born grandparents, two models very close to him, to pose in an assortment of playful costumes. Whimsical yet grounded in their age, each portrait finds a balance between vulnerability, empowerment, and pride. Using multiple layers of oil paint, Yarmosky employs dramatic lighting to create depth, literally and metaphorically. Each character's stark pose accentuates the inconsistencies of age and appearance. Ranging from a shirtless cowboy to a pensive pink bunny rabbit, Yarmosky's subjects explore the intersection of jaded seniority and the audacity of youth. Check out some examples below...
See, now you know and there's no harm done...Now come and join us at the opening of "Elder Kinder," Friday, February 11th at 6:30pm!
