Greg Drasler's 'On The Lam' exhibition at Betty Cuningham Gallery through October 15
Greg Drasler's exhibition 'On The Lam' presents a series of paintings described as a raucous fun fair, running at Betty Cuningham Gallery in New York City until October 15. The show features allegorical works exploring themes of transport and fugitive movement, with visual wit concealing unexpected pockets of poignancy. A 2011 oil on linen painting titled 'On the Lam' measures 70 by 160 inches. David Cohen reviewed the exhibition, noting how strident design and glossy resolution contrast with delicate handwriting energizing the surfaces. The paintings incorporate diverse visual elements including dislocated wheels, decorated caravans, Harlequin diamonds, devil's stripes, flag-like fields, and plaid skies. Drasler previously characterized his work as being packed like luggage, appointed like rooms, and driven like automobiles. The gallery is located at 541 West 25th Street in New York City.
