"Exit Art, For the Final Exit"
2001-10-28 until 2001-11-25
Exit Art Gallery
Cologne, ,
DE Germany
This exhibition includes installations, sculpture and paintings by American Artist, Frank Williams. Known for his emotional expressionistic social political commentary, his latest works probe the universal concepts of immortality, religion, martyrdom and spiritual reward. This exhibit talks in metaphor about the symbolism of the devoted and the immortals and the dilemma of devotion to any one system of beliefs.
Who is immortal, what is sacred: and doesn't religion by it's very nature exclude other belief systems there by fostering prejudice and intoleranceNULL
Satire is in ample supply in this latest collection of Frank Williams' ongoing investigation.
Williams has lived and worked in Russia since 1992 and has exhibited extensively throughout that country. In 1996 he was the first American artist to have a personal exhibit at the State Russian Museum in St. Petersburg. From his Moscow Studio he has generated work which has been shown in virtually all the major Russian Museums from Moscow to Siberia.
