East Gallery: Jonathan Gitelson -- Photographs: The Car Project


West Gallery: Stas Orlovski -- Paintings: Recent Work



Jonathan's photographs and sculpture offer a wry commentary on nightclubs and mass
advertising. He collected 1000s of flyers (the kind you find stuck under your windshield
wipers) and sewed a car cover with them. He then photographed his car wearing this
cover while it was parked in front of various dance clubs in Chicago. The obsessive nature of this activity, the compulsion to catalog, index and organize is spun away from sobriety into
the comical and the absurd.

West Gallery: Stas Orlovski -- Paintings: Recent Work

Stas Orlovski brings a printmaker's sensibility to his paintings. Using conventions typically found in ukiyo-e prints, he fuses split font skies with transferred images of birds and butterflies on Japanese rice paper which he then mounts to canvas. The resulting images are pristine and enigmatic visual puzzles.
