Busy month for good shows, almost too many to get too. But here is one I had to post. Jim Lee has a solo exhibition that opened February 4th at Freight and Volume. The gallery has posted a number of great images. I like the one above especially because it shows many aspects of what I think of when I think Jim Lee. The wooden structure, the unusual shape for a support, and a sense of humor that comes through even with a muted pallette.
Shown above: Neocide, 2008-09, oil enamel on cast resin with gesso and wood, 10.5 x 6.5 by Jim Lee.
There are a few nice pieces written on this, check them out.
