Yes, Masters II: A MANthology

Presented by JoAnne ARTMAN Gallery at Online/Virtual Space

JoAnne Artman Gallery in Laguna Beach proudly presents, Yes, Masters II: A MANthology, an exhibition of recent works by Danny Galieote, Greg Miller, and Michael Callas which pays homage to the past by putting a present-day spin on age-old masterpieces.

Drawn from the term, “Old Masters,” the title refers to such prolific artists as Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, and Rembrandt. Derived and abstracted from Old Master paintings and ideologies, Galieote, Miller, and Callas deconstruct pictorial language and artistic agency through investigating the ways in which their masculinity, identity, and individualism are embedded in both the significance and composition of each work.

A departure from their typical styles and subjects, each artist created specifically for this exhibition.  Daring to assume a different artistic paradigm that combines 20 th century attitude with traditional European sensibility, the culmination is a shared dialogue challenging conventional narratives in art with expressive color and a focus on figuration. Playful and satirical, these contemporary adaptations of art history merge the classical with the commodification of art in pop culture and mass media, all while bringing Old Masters into a new world.
