GROUP EXHIBITION @ S.I.C.A.

Curator: Jenn Hampton (Director-Parlor Gallery)

OPENING RECEPTION: Sun., MARCH 29th; 3-6pm.

An outgrowth of the 60’s pop culture, Pop Surrealism draws from such iconic messengers as the Zap Comix Collective with Robert Williams, R. Crumb, and Gilbert Shelton, as well as the California car culture maestro “Big Daddy” Ed Roth. It blends Pop and “low brow” art with the psychological and sometime visceral edge of surrealism. In this show Jenn is exploring the darker side of this current movement.ABOUT S.I.C.A.
