Dunn and Brown Contemporary: Sam Reveles x Robyn O'Neil Exhibitions

Sam Reveles - Untitled Drawings | 24x18

Dunn and Brown Contemporary are host to artists Sam Reveles x Robyn O'Neil and their latest exhibitions "Juarez Paintings" x "Come, all that is quite".

Sam Reveles "Juarez Paintings" Exhibition:

Sam Reveles - Mandala Painting 2009, 2010 | 78x88

Once you walk into the Sam Reveles "Juarez Paintings" exhibit at Dunn and Brown you are gasped by the extremely bold, chaotic, and peaceful oil x acrylic paintings and gouaches on paper - especially by the larger wall pieces. Reveles' "Juarez Paintings" is an exhibit inspired by the war and violence being dispensed upon the city of Juarez, Mexico - a neighboring city from Reveles' hometown of El Paso, Texas. Reveles expresses his emotions using the Mandala technique, which usually expresses peace, but with Reveles chaotic techniques used within his work you can see the frustration that may be implied due to Juarez, Mexico turning into one of the top murder capitals in the nation, which is due in large part by drug trafficking.

Sam Reveles - Untitled Drawing | 24x18

Robyn O'Neil "Come, all that is quite" Exhibition:

Robyn O'Neil - Come All Things Quite 2009 | 60x60

This exhibit was definitely interesting, while talking with a staff member of Dunn and Brown Contemporary, I got the sense that Robyn O'Neil's "Come, all that is quite" exhibit expresses either man becoming more in-tune with nature - taking it back to the Romanticism and the Frontier Myth days - or man viewing nature and the world without boundaries. The mechanical pencil drawings definitely leave room for ones imagination to wander x wonder.

Robyn O'Neil - Phantom Limb | 60x60

Robyn O'Neil - On Sorrow 2009 | 60x60

"While O’Neil’s previous body of work narrated epic scenes of men struggling against Nature and the coming Apocalypse, she has now created drawings depicting a world after the world has won. The sublime power of Nature has dominated and her distinctive figures - men in identical track suits and Nike running shoes - have disappeared. The depictions now replace the previous landscapes, expansive mountains and ominous, stormy skies with images of a world disjointed and turned upside down, with seemingly no gravity and often lacking a horizon line. For example, the piece for which this show was titled, Come, all that is quiet, depicts only the back of a man’s head and a small looming cloud above him. The head floats in space as the figure gazes out over an empty world, perhaps representing a memory or reflection of what was once there." - Dunn and Brown Contemporary

Robyn O'Neil - Something Vanished Over Paradise 2009

Robyn O'Neil - Mind of Others 2009 | 60x60

Exhibit ends July 19, 2010.

The exhibit is exciting and fresh as it mixes a variety of styles together; your visual senses will definitely be pleased by this exhibit.

Jeff Elrod x Dunn & Brown Contemporary

The Dunn & Brown Contemporary art gallery has been hosting Irving native and UNT graduate Jeff Elrod's work since late-March, and if you haven't gotten a chance to check it out then you might want to go ahead and hit Uptown to get a looksy. The artwork by Jeff Elrod found in this exhibition provides visual mastery in the form of abstract and chaotic digital lines made from Elrod's computer. After doing somewhat of a scribbling technique for his pieces with a mouse, Elrod layers bold colors and uses tape to outline the improvisational lines for his pieces to "pop." The as it may seem "accidental" art is then transformed into a digital/visual orgasm. The Jeff Elrod exhibit is running through May 1, 2010.

PDNB x Stewart Cohen x "Identity"



Photographer Stewart Cohen's new manifesto "Identity" features 50 portraits of interesting people ranging from Campbell Bosworth, Eryhad Badu, Philip Glass and Johnny Lee Hooker. In each photograph, Cohen ask's the individual "What makes you unique?", which allows for the viewer to delve into the characters personality, and take it for what it's really worth.


"Stewart Cohen and his camera work magic...he does more than capture people and their personalities. He explores their identity. Each page will delight you, and also make you think. It's a treasure," commented Walter Isaacson. - Via PDNB

Via illRoots - "Exit Through the Gift Shop, the first film by renowned graffiti artist Banksy, became the hottest ticket at the 2010 Sundance Film Festival where it made its world debut. Banksy is a graffiti artist with a global reputation whose work can be seen on walls from post—hurricane New Orleans to the separation barrier on the Palestinian West Bank. Fiercely guarding his anonymity to avoid prosecution, Banksy has so far resisted all attempts to be captured on film. Exit Through the Gift Shop tells the incredible true story of how an eccentric French shop keeper turned documentary maker attempted to locate and befriend Banksy, only to have the artist turn the camera back on its owner with spectacular results. The film contains exclusive footage of Banksy, Shepard Fairey, Invader and many of the worlds most infamous graffiti artists at work, on walls and in interview. As Banksy describes it, Its basically the story of how one man set out to film the un—filmable. And failed."

Spike Jonze x "I'm Here"
