Grace Aldrich, "Not As It Seems"
If you're a René Magritte maven or a Salvador Dali dabbler, this exhibit's for you. The thirteenth annual Surreal Salon at the Baton Rouge Gallery, held in partnership with the LSU School of Art, will feature work from artists across the country, shedding light on the lasting effects that surrealism has had on art created in the twenty-first century. With work by dozens of artists, expect a multi-sensory contemporary art experience with a special focus on the growing quality and popularity of the pop-surrealist/lowbrow movement in American contemporary art. For this year's exhibition, BRG has enlisted the LA contemporary art gallery, Thinkspace Projects, as a Special Guest Curator. The Thinkspace team will gave a free and informal virtual presentation in conjunction with the exhibition, touching on their experiences handling and representing pop-surrealist/lowbrow work, the state of pop-surrealism today, as well as the collection of works featured in Surreal Salon 13. batonrougegallery.org.
