Panic At The Gallery! Justin Bower Mesmerizes At Unix Gallery

Don't adjust your computer screen!  It's just an exhibit entitled "PANIC ROOM" by Justin Bower and yes, the show is beyond incredible. I spotted this first piece upon leaving the KAWS show in Chelsea at Mary Boone Gallery.  I looked in the window across the street at Unix Gallery, 532 W24th and this is what I saw!  Completely blown away I headed in and had a quick chat with the gallery owner learning more about Bower and this exhibit.   You need to see it/them to believe the large scale canvases with gorgeous and haunting layers of sweeping lush layers of paint.  Yes, you will think you are seeing double or triple, have a look and learn more about Bower and the show below....

Featured in Modern Painters as one of the "100 Best Fall Shows 2013," Panic Room focuses on the destabilization of the human subject and how we define ourselves in this digital and virtual age.  In his paintings his art interrogates the autonomy bestowed upon us by the ideals of enlightenment and  pens a dialog documenting trauma and technology found within the contemporary human. Asking... "what am I?"  Bower is an acclaimed artist from  San Francisco, living and working in Los Angeles.  He has shown in galleries, museums and international art fairs  throughout the country and featured in several art magazines.
