Our friends at Mistress invited us to show some work with some of our favorite artists/people.

This Saturday, October 16th, our homie Richard Colman will be unveiling his solo show, Something Better, at The Guerrerro Gallery in San Francisco. Colman’s work, brightly hued and dense with intricately complex patterns and geometric shapes, abstractly presents theatrical narratives from an alternate world.  Drawing influences from Byzantine art and Islamic mosaics, the craftsmanship behind the language he creates through character, symbol and line abstractions seeks to provide a hiding place, a better place, away from the fallacies of everyday life. Provoking escapism and the use of one’s imagination, his work, focuses on the interaction between different landscapes rather than on character interaction. Colman challenges his work by either simplifying it or by barraging it with complexity. He creates a beautiful world that is, well, simply complex, and constantly evolving as he is. Colman was born in 1976 and grew up in Bethesda, Maryland, a suburb of Washington, D.C. Colman graduated from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, Massachusetts, in 2002. He has exhibited throughout the world in solo and group exhibitions including the Museum of Contemporary Art in D.C., New Image Gallery in Los Angeles, Krets in Malmo, Sweden, V1 Gallery in Copenhagen, Union Gallery in London, and ARKEN Museum Of Modern Art in Denmark. Colman has completed murals for Coca-Cola, Mattel Toys, and NYNY Hotel, and has been included in publications such as While You Were Sleeping, Arkitip and Juxtapoz. In 2006, Gingko Press released a book cataloging his work titled “I Was Just Leaving.” Colman currently lives and works in San Francisco, California. Saturday, October 16th, 2010 7pm to 11pm 2700 19th Street San Francisco, CA 94110 415.400.5168
