Roq La Rue is pleased to host Chris Crites second show at the gallery, a new series of paintings entitled "About:Face".
Working with acrylic on paper (including his trademark paper bags), Crites' hyper meticulous works explores the communicative plane we humans share that speaks to us on so many levels that language cannot. This body of work is a continuation of Crites exploration of faces from different stages in time. Part of what fascinates Crites is the unseen story, or history behind each image, and depict very poignant moments in the subjects lifetime, captured in a still image. He says "By working in a larger scale and with different materials, this series represents a challenge to myself and what I believe to be some of my most engaging paintings."
Travis Lampe makes his debut at the gallery with a show entitled "Best Loved Tales of Misery and Woe".
Working in his humorous trademark retro animation inspired style, this exhibition "Is about a creeping stain of woe that is so permeating that it's gone back in time and spoiled all of your childhood memories – but in a funny way." says Lampe.
