Quality Picutres is pleased to present Urbania, a three-person show that celebrates the city in all its gritty, techincolor glory. The three artists were chosend to partipate in the exhibiton because of their innovate way of approaching the repective mediums in which they work. Gerald Slota creates photographs of hos own collage-like fabrications that in turn use found and created photographs as their basis. Slota works challenge the photographic notion of flawless surfaces and mechanical perfection. For the works in Urbania, Slota created images drenched in color and ambuguity that sit in stark contrast to the more traditional examinations of the city by Helen Levitt, Philip-Lorca Dicorcia and others. Slota has exhibited widely including solo shows at the prestigious George Eastman House in Rochester New York and at David Isenhour is a professor at the Univeristy of South Florida in Orlando makes works that are sculpted, cast and finished with automotive paint and clear coat. The works abstractly explore contemporary urban themes of genetic research, ecology, cloning, pop cultural anxieties and the possible repercussions of these issues. Isenhour has shown at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Jacksonville, Florida and at the Blue Star Contemporary Art Center in San Antonio Texas. Christopher Rose is a graduate of the MFA program at the Art Institute of Chicago and makes impressionistic works the depict hallmarks of contemporary urban life: car crashes and traffic jams. Rose's work was recently exhibited at PS 122 in New York City.
