The End

El Centro College
Dallas, Texas

Thor Johnson performance 

Luke Harden 


 Clay Stinnett

 Pierre Krause, Thor Johnson, Pedro Velez

 
Dwayne Carter
 

curated by Randall Garrett -
 
Featuring work by: Dwayne Carter, Luke Harnden, Thor Johnson, Pierre Krause, Clay Stinnett, Pedro Vélez

“The End” is a group show focusing on the theme of endings, as artists look at life and death, relationships, and apocalypse. A selection of work in a variety of media, including painting, sculpture, photography, a...nd video will be presented.

Dwayne Carter’s small framed works in oil and graphite serve as studies for his finished digital prints, which are then incorporated into thematic graphic novel projects.

Luke Harnden appropriates photographs of outdated and obsolete personal mementoes and technological artifacts, which he then prints onto canvases and alters through painting.

Thor Johnson’s sculptural totem “Trigger Warning Alpha” (2014), mixes a hand carved skull with objects that evoke both personal and collective violence.

Pierre Krause re-edits vintage video infomercials, to foreground their cultural subjectivity, adding dark abstract soundtracks, enhancing their strangeness and foregrounding the artist’s own perceptions.

Clay Stinnett makes odd paintings and works on paper that hover between the realm of graphic poster and religious icon.

Puerto Rican native and Chicago/Milwaukee artist Pedro Vélez, a participant in this year’s Whitney Biennial, will show a selection from the photo studies, “Girlfriend Glare” (2003).

Participating artist Thor Johnson will perform an electronic / didgeridoo sound set as a part of the opening reception on Friday evening June 6th.
