I saw this show, and it was good, the color was very powerful - the compositions were bold and used both the illusion of space and the flat space of the canvas well.

I don't know too much about the artist, but I am guessing that they are young, the work was full of energy and radiated optimism despite some of the images being rather grim and disturbing upon closer inspection. I was actually working freelance installing a show at Stellan Holm Gallery about 5 doors down, and walked into Zach Feuer while they were hanging this show. I asked whose show it was, and the lady at the desk said something like "ass chicken," so I said back, "ass chicken?" They said "No, Dah sha shisss Kin."
