AZF will be at MASS Gallery, which is now in the complex at 507 Calles Street. The current show is Young Sons. It’s a bunch of enormous collaborative paintings by Michael Ricioppo and Drew Liverman, which I highly recommend checking out even if you’re not interested in the zine fest.

Funky Junction Oracles, New Work by Dylan Reece at MASS Gallery in Austin

Filed under: Events — Tags: , , , , — William Cardini @ 7:40 am

My good friend Dylan’s solo show, Funky Junction Oracles, opens this Saturday (Oct 17th) at MASS Gallery here in Austin from 10pm to 12am. If you’re in the area, be sure to check this show out. It’ll be open until Nov 7th. Here’s an excerpt from the press release:

On view from October 17th to November 7th, Funky Junction Oracles employs a variety of media — prints, photography, painting, animated GIFs, and sculpture — to illustrate Reece’s attempt to fix meaning in a world characterized by ever increasing flows of information and rapid change in the complexity of social systems. Drawing from a range of sources that include the pop-metaphysics of the ’70s, the classical art of Greece and Rome, the internet, vintage nature books, rave culture, and Modernism in art, the imagery for much of the work is unified by an underlying sense of idealism and progress gone awry.

I’m super stoked about this show. Here are some choice pieces of Dylan’s old work from his excellent blog:
