 LeQuiVive Gallery & guest curator Max Kauffman present Neu Folk Revival, a group show exploring notions of traditional art making. The title refers to a new movement working in these confines; or rather a cross section of artists from different realms that make work that speaks to this tradition. By celebrating these techniques, it is hoped that new appreciation for work done by hand, done for the simple act of creation is looked at in line with great artists spanning back to the dawn of civilization. At its core, it is visual storytelling, done by the everyday man, the craftsmen, the self-taught, and the sometimes obsessive. Neu Folk Revival expands the vision and subtle story of LeQuiVive as we combine the folky illustrations, the train hopping moniker, writers of street art, & graffito in order to explore our current society through the view of the new Americana. Featuring new work from: Ryan Bubnis John Casey Chip 7 Lisa Congdon Uriel Correa Cosmic Nuggets Jennifer Davis Cannon Dill Doodles Bill Dunlap Mike Egan John Fellows Christian Brock Forrer ghostpatrol Robert Hardgrave Katy Horan Anthony Hurd Rich Jacobs Yellena James Max Kauffman Scot Lefavor Matt Leines Linsey Levendall Justin Lovato Troy Lovegates Maseman Erin McCarty Mildred Jaime Molina Hari Panicker and Deepti Nair Daryll Peirce Jeremy Pruitt Faring Purth Jesse Reno Ryan Riss Brian Robertson Katherine Rutter Souther Salazar Lucien Shapiro Santos Shelton Chris Silva Collin van der Sluijs Zio Ziegler Event Information: NeuFolk Revival Opening Reception – October 05, 2013 7pm LeQuiVive Gallery 1525 Webster st, located in downtown Oakland. |
