Noon – 5pm
Artist Talk
September 12
1pm – 2pm
Bill Weber’s work takes a hard look at the corruption of government and a decaying civilization. With a dystopian thread, his meticulous technique involving layering color upon color reveals what life can look like given our current trajectory. The details are rich, often depicting corporate, industrial giants as ungainly four legged creatures roaming a desolate earth, or a nightmarish transport machine with hellish backgrounds, and Imagine Hieronymus Bosch meeting Dali. There you will find El Gallo.
