FACTION Art Projects
June 22 – July 15, 2018
About
Gallery 8, 2602 Frederick Douglass Blvd, NY 10030NewYork based FACTION Art Projects has announced an intimate three-person show, Others. Participating artists include Los Angeles based Mark Dutcher and Aaron Smith and UK based Andrew Mania.
The exhibition presents complex masculine identities that challenge historical depictions of strong, muscled men of stature. The works in this show portray a masculinity that is vulnerable, doubtful, idealized or pretty stimulating discussion around modern perspectives of masculinity.
These three artists portray alternative masculine identities using differing styles. Unexpected visual elements of one artists’ work morph into the others. Mark Dutcher’s use of the grid in his paintings resembles the lattice backdrops in Andrew Mania’s portraits.The postures of Aaron Smith’s older subjects reflect those of the young men in Mania's.
