Radical Perception: A Love Triangle

Radical Perception,  features new works by three emerging artists based in Brooklyn, New York. All are exploring a strain of contemporary American world view shared by generation x and y through the visual experience. The exhibition presents distinct approaches to image collapse and degradation as a result of the over saturation of visual stimulus now common in a globally connected world. The opening reception will be held on Friday the 21st of February from 7-10pm at Small Editions new location, 60 Sackett Street, Ground Floor Suite 4, Brooklyn, NY 11231.

Anne Vieux's digital paintings play with the elements of psychedelia as they relate to tropes of painting, such as the window, mirror, and the frame. Through physical layers of transparency and medium manipulation, Vieux expands these works through meditations on perception, digital formatting, and utopia visions.

Sheryl Oppenheim sees the world through mediation. Her paintings and drawings explore the tension of mass produced luxury through the language of DIY distribution. Her current works combine artisan processes from the 1400's with commercial mass production to create dense surfaces for contemplation of a divided population.

Noah Breuer plays with visual perception by collapsing and reassembling layers of visual history. His recent series of print-based collages  sample 1980's and '90's-era baseball cards and focus on the halftone dot as the central visual building block of these images.
