Opening: TAG Gallery Group Show, Saturday September 1

What's Happening:

A group show at the mid-city TAG Gallery opening this weekend, this collection is sure to deliver on an individual and juxtapositional basis. 

Artist Pam Douglas presents Artifacts of Grace, which explores human connection through the vessel of the female figure. This work also grapples with the humanitarian crisis and atrocities occurring on our shared border with Mexico. 

K Ryan Henisey has on view Mythologies, a mixed media collection the artist describes as a 'queer celebration of the wind' — Henisey has integrated his social media presence into this work, creating a fluid barrier between the IRL and URL.

Boris Litvinov displays End of Privacy: generally a stone carver and sculptor, Litvinov has shifted to found-object collage and sculpture. Engaging with the corrupt nature of global powers and propagandic emergence in the last 3-5 years, the Soviet born artist faces the toxicity of digital media head on.

TAG President Karen Sarrow will also be showing work; a collection of paintings called FEM. Again using the body as a site of action and conflict, she goes one step further and connects the body to the earth and the urgency of climate change.
