"Andy Freeberg : Guardians and William Steiger : Drawings"
2010-03-13 until 2010-04-17
Kopeikin Gallery
West Hollywood, CA, USA United States of America

The Kopeikin Gallery presents the first west coast exhibition of drawings by New York based artist William Steiger whose subject matter are icons of the American landscape, including grain elevators, tramways, railroad cars, roller coasters and ferris wheels. Steiger's drawings are never populated, focusing rather on the chiseled geometry of recognizable structures of 20th century ideology. The reduced forms offer neither a romantic modernist view, nor an ironic look at a lapsed technology. 

The Kopeikin Gallery presents an exhibition of photographs by Andy Freeberg (http://andyfreebergphotoart.com) titled "Guardians." It's a dryly humorous and heartwarming essay on the women guarding various Russian Art Museums. The series asks viewers to contemplate the lives of these women and how they relate to the artwork on display. In fact, the artwork often becomes peripheral as the focus settles upon these comfortably seated, musing characters.The exhibition opens on Saturday March 13th with a reception and book signing (http://guardiansbook.com) with the artist.
