Small Worlds

McCaig-Welles Gallery, New York

Greg Lamarche and Andrew Schoultz

McCaig-Welles Gallery is pleased to announce its upcoming exhibition of recent small-scale works by New York artist Greg Lamarche and San Francisco painter Andrew Schoultz.

Both artists draw on their early experiences in graffiti and public murals. Lamarche’s collages concentrate on text and font while Schoultz’s paintings focus on social and political issues. Lamarche’s paper collages utilize printed letters cut into geometric shapes which are repeated in patterns that evoke cityscapes, broken glass and dark tunnels while Schoultz’s detailed paintings depict an apocalyptical world filled with natural disasters, endangered animals and toxic waste. In contrast to the large-scale mural paintings each are known for, this exhibition consists of small works. Each artwork provides a view in to an alternate realm; each its own small world.

Lamarche was recently featured in Arkitip and Swindle magazines. In 2005 he had a solo exhibition at Rivieria Gallery, Brooklyn and was included numerous group shows including Other Possibilities at Track 16 Gallery, Los Angeles and Dreamland Artist Club, Coney Island, New York. His work will be on view in the exhibition, Spothunters. at the New Art Center, Newton, Massachusetts from March 6 through April 7, 2006.

Schoultz recently had a solo exhibition at Giant Robot, Los Angeles and was included in Cartoon NETworks at Raid Projects, Los Angeles. He was the featured artist in Nero Magazine, Rome and his works were on view at the Sun Valley Center for the Arts, Sun Valley, Idaho, in November 2005.
