Andrew Edlin Gallery is pleased to present Apparitions, a group exhibit featuring artists Daniel Belardinelli, J.J. Cromer, and T.V.- Tommy Vision.Show dates are June 13 - July 20, 2002.

Using various techniques and materials,
the artists in Apparitions are all self-taught and united by their use of archetypal symbols. Animals and primitive beast-like figures are interspersed with human faces, suggesting raw psychological states such as paranoia, confusion, panic, and ferocity.

Daniel Belardinelli uses pictographic street-markings on various surfaces to create a deliberate kind of unschooled graphic tableau. Combining random text and occasional legal terms (he is a non-practicing lawyer) his art makes poetic appropriations in a field of imagery that presents people, animals, and monsters as sub-human figures.

J.J.Cromer works with acrylic, oil paint and ink on paper. His images focus on a dominant trance-like human face that upon closer inspection, houses layers of small animals, plantlife, and countless smaller faces drawn in exquisite detail.

T.V.- Tommy Vision uses stones, glass, seashells, coins, tiles and other found materials as components in his striking portraits of unapologetic figures that stare fiercely back at the viewer.


Gallery hours are Tuesday - Saturday 11 - 6PM.
