New Works

The McCaig-Welles Gallery is pleased to present an exhibition of new works by New York-based painter and photographer David Hochbaum. The exhibition will open with a reception on Friday April 6th from 7:00 pm to 10:00 pm.

Combining sculpture, photography, silk screens, acetate transfers and traditional painting techniques, Hochbaum's recent work asks us to step outside the multilevel-ed fortifications built around our true selves - claustrophobic metropoli which serve to both protect and obfuscate the intentions of their respective populations.

Gigantic characters loom over the boundaries of these psychic barriers. Messengers from the collective subconscious, they carry bundles of wood, sailing ships, horns and other iconic objects as offerings; enticements meant to remind us of our commonality before isolation separates us forever.

David Hochbaum was born in NY. He has exhibited extensively throughout the United States and abroad. His work is in major private and public collections.

Opening Reception: Friday, April 6th 7-10pm
