Los Angeles, CA (July 27, 2021) - Thinkspace Projects is pleased to present two brand new solo exhibitions, and additional work in their viewing room. In Gallery One, Alex Face’s debut U.S. solo show, ‘Scorch and Drop,’ highlights Alex Face’s signature character, exploring new situations and elements. His famous subject, a quizzical smoking baby that shares a moniker with the artist himself, can be seen contemplating the future. With a worried look spread across its face, this baby turns an eye to the world around it, an extension of Alex Face’s identity as an artist with a social conscience. The baby, with its third eye to represent another dimension beyond what we can plainly see, takes on new situations and future possibilities in this new collection of work.
In Gallery Two, Thinkspace Projects is pleased to present Huntz Liu’s latest solo show, ‘Strata.’ Using his signature techniques of cutting and layering paper, Liu crafts a collection of work that explores depth in a striking way. Known for using a straightedge and knife to craft his compositions, Liu has taken his study of perception to new heights with ‘Strata.’ Each composition is comprised of meticulously cut shapes on different planes, reveling in both the layering of material and the absence of material. By embracing negative space, Liu creates line and shadow, building an image that is so much more than each of its individual parts. The compositions strive for a perfect balance, embracing the chaos of the shapes and colors.
The viewing room will hold new works by Dovie Golden, a Chicago-based African American contemporary artist and painter. His thought-provoking, emotionally charged creations invite viewers into the issues of race, gender, pop culture, and mental health.
These shows open August 14, 2021. On view until September 4, 2021 at Thinkspace Projects.
