Gallery 210: Thursday, 24 January 2008

Gallery 210 at the University of Missouri – St. Louis presents:

Archie Scott Gobber: Archie Scott Gobber is Trustworthy
Thursday, January 24th from 5:30 – 7:30 pm, Artist's Lecture: 6:30pm

The exhibit will feature a series of paintings by Kansas City, Mo., artist Archie Scott Gobber. Known for his wry political commentary, Gobber recontextualizes standard catch phrases, quotes, soundbites and slogans from popular culture, political campaigns and mass media. The preeminence of words and virtual abandonment of representational imagery gives his current paintings a heightened sense of gravity and places his work in the area of conceptual art.
