Project One Gallery Presents: Everything is Beautiful (II) | New works by René Garcia Jr.
Opening Reception | Wednesday December 8. 2010 | 7pm - 11pm | (Hosted bar from 7 to 9pm)
Everything is Beautiful (II) examines the way we market pleasure through exploitation. Playful works draw on established iconography and proven techniques to manipulate reaction. Americana, candy, pornography and fried chicken are served up with extra pizazz.
René Garcia Jr. draws upon a broad palette of established techniques, media, and experience in an effort to re-imagine popular art. An accomplished painter, photographer, illustrator, and all around idea man, it his large format glitter paintings that have drawn the most recognition. Be employing simple, craft based techniques that anyone can master, he makes art that is immediately accessible. Above anything else René Garcia, Jr. likes making art that is fun. He has been sharing his art with the Project One community from its inception and is the artist of "Scorpion" which is currently showing in the lounge at Project One.
René lives and works in San Francisco.
