Things to do in Denver when you're gay: Fracture art show at Boxcar Gallery

Boxcar Gallery presents Fracture, October 28th to November 20th 2010. This exhibition features the work of Boxcar members Phil Spaulding and Ian Rumley. The opening reception will be Thursday October 28th from 6-9pm and First Friday November 5th from 6-10pm. Fracture will run through November 20th, 2010.

In his new series Fracture, Phil Spaulding continues to explore the relationship between the conscious and unconscious mind. His imagery collides creating visual fragments of his memories. These methodically rendered graphite images unite to form a juxtaposition of positive and negative space where imagery becomes the mode of his communication.

Painter Ian Rumley presents Kill em All, in which he uses an illustrative style chronicling the history of hatred and violence woven into the human experience. Ian’s use of created and appropriated symbolism generates an apocalyptic atmosphere of hopelessness and despair, offering no apologies and suggesting no solutions.

Fracture opens Thursday October 28th, 2010 from 6-9pm and First Friday November 5th from 6pm to 10pm.
