CURRENT EXHIBITION

BANKS VIOLET: AMERICAN STANDARD

Now until June 15

Banks Violette’s artwork explores moments when strong beliefs erupt from the realm of theory and become real. He mixes influences from postwar art, politics, religion, and pop culture, creating dark, ambiguous pieces that blur the line between widely accepted ideas and those that are feared or rejected. While his work has touched on many aspects of Western culture, this exhibition focuses on American identity, from its rise as an empire to its decline, capturing a uniquely American mix of pleasure and destruction.

Banks Violette: American Standard is made possible through the generosity of our sponsors including William + Jodi Felton, Thomas Hofstetter / The Hofstetter Baron Group, Joyce Pauker, Russell Insurance Agency, Frederic Cooper + Ruth Mannes.
