Duane Reed Gallery: Friday, 26 June 2015

POP-UP EXHIBITION
Provocative Desire
Triesch Voelker
June 26th - July 11th
Opening Reception Friday, June 26th from 5-8 p.m

Duane Reed Gallery is proud to present a pop-up exhibition featuring the work of ceramic artist Triesch Voelker. The exhibition will feature Voelker’s illustrated functional ceramics, which are boldly fixed with images of vulnerability, pride, and desire.

Desire is an intoxicating feeling. Desire is an appetite, an all-consuming obsession to those urges, subjects, and memories that appeal to our raw emotional and physical senses. How appropriate, then, it is for Voelker to adorn dinnerware with the implications of desire. Voelker manages to serve us a hearty portion of personal narrative while retaining within his illustrations a shared human experience. Utilizing bold line and color while achieving an evocative minimalism, his work is arousing, sophisticated, and palpable.

A portion of the proceeds will support Pride St. Louis, Inc. The exhibition opens Friday, June 26th with a reception that evening 5 – 8pm, and will be on view through July 11th. Gallery hours: Tuesday through Saturday 10-5pm.
