Details
Step into Civilization: From Rococo to Retro, a captivating exploration of human creativity across centuries. This exhibition showcases the vibrant works of Denise Stewart-Sanabria and Jason Brueck, two artists who masterfully blend historical references, cultural mythologies, and contemporary flair to create narratives that are at once playful and profound.
Through oil paintings and mixed media, the exhibition spans ancient Rome, Rococo France, the mythologies of post-WWII pop culture, and 21st-century iconography. From figurines and pastries to astronaut skeletons and jungle warriors, this collection invites viewers to explore the humorous, surreal, and poignant intersections of civilization’s past, present, and imagined futures.
