Brian Gross Fine Art: Leo Valledor - Color Space

Catharine Clark Gallery: Masami Teraoka's Apocalyptic Theater - The Pope, Putin, Peach Boy, and Pussy Riot Galore; Shalo P - The Bedroom Suite

Comment by AB: Masami Teroaka brings us a little bit of Hell on earth with his calamitous depictions of pretty much everything combusting at once. Perhaps portentous; time will tell. This is a major exhibition and definitely worth seeing, assuming you're not easily offended and have a stout constitution. While there, be sure to check out Shalo P's video in the projection room. Abstract as it is, it perks right along and culminates in a crescendo ending.
