How’s the saying go, “Don’t sweat the small stuff”? Well, if you’re Robert Lange and George Ayers, the small stuff is all you’re sweating leading into Shiny Stuff, their new two-man show opening April 5 at Robert Lange Studios in Charleston, South Carolina.
The show will feature a variety of things summed up best by one of Lange’s works: tiny and shiny. Lange’s work will feature wild animals shrunk and placed into silver bowls, as well as works like Bee Strong, which shows a normal-sized honeybee flying with a bear-shaped bottle of honey. “I’ve been painting shiny, reflective objects since senior year of high school when I first began to paint. For me, it was always the second painting that existed inside the reflective surface that was the most interesting,” Lange says. “Since then 20 years have passed, and I have tried to examine shiny surfaces from every nuanced angle I could think of. This new body of work hopes to showcase a wide range of diversity within the subject matter all the while promoting a state of levity and buoyancy.”

Next Exit New York
Coming off his series that focused on San Francisco and Los Angeles freeway signs, artist Eric Nash’s sights are now set on New York. Now on view at George Billis Gallery's Manhattan location are seven of Nash's new oil paintings and two drawings that explore the signage of New York City freeways. Although Nash's work is tightly rendered, he doesn’t consider himself a photorealist, but rather someone who utilizes those techniques to express ideas.
