Show Opening - Dan Witz "Mosh Pits, Human and Otherwise" & Brett Amory - "Dark Light" @ Jonathan Levine Gallery NYC

Jonathan Levine and Dan Witz at the opening.

We mentioned Dan Witz earlier this week in our sneak peak for his new collection "Mosh Pits, Human and Otherwise"s  showing at Jonathan Levine Gallery. Last night was the opening and Mr. Witz shared with us an impressive body of work that highlighted his mosh pit theme, a series of mixed media paintings produced over the past ten years. The hyper-realistic paintings achieve illusions of light, shadow and depth that must be seen.

Opening along side Dan was Oakland native Brett Amory's "Dark Light," a new series of paintings on panel expanding upon Brett's ongoing series of works entitled "Waiting." The breathtaking works portray studies of urban life through fragmented cityscapes and anonymous, isolated figures.  The show runs until July30th and is a must see.
