Nothing to See Here Garth Claassen March 19 - April 23, 2022 OPENING RECEPTION Saturday, March 19, 7PM SKETCHBOOK SHARE Saturday, April 2, 3PM COMMUNITY ART TALK Saturday, April 16, 3PM Garth Claassen’s solo exhibition Nothing to See Here is about what we can, or cannot, or may not see. “See” is used in the broadest sense to include not only what is visible but also what is comprehensible. In two new series of work, Blind Spot and Nothing to See Here, Claassen brings into play established symbols of authority that have been impressed on society for decades: the suited-up businessman and the great state seal. Claassen makes use of the symbols’ recognizable formal structures, but deviates from the ideals they represent. The work draws on contemporary motifs and evokes an aura of ambiguity that allows us to rethink the relationship between current events and the obsolescence of those symbols. |
