Lone Star, In his third solo show at Parker’s Box, Jason Glasser departs from the familiar quirkiness of a huge cast of characters and turns his attention to light effects in painted forms that include light sources and play with multiple simple shadows, colors and shapes. The exhibition title, Lone Star is taken from a new film, also more abstract than his previous video works, and largely influenced by his year-long residency in the bright and ever present light of Texas.

A mouth that might sing, Gallery 1 & 2 Ryan Mrozowski, paintings, drawings, video, and several found image light sculptures. Working in these varied approaches, Mrozowski explores the way formal digressions can warp and shift the symbolic meaning of representational imagery. By overlapping faces, cutting away, folding, cropping, obscuring imagery, among other techniques, he creates a sort of banal surrealism. He works with the images, whittling them away, wearing them down like a bar of soap. 27 April through 27 May.

Stillness and quietude, In the nobel tradition of Edward Hopper, the Hudson River school, the Barbizon School and even back to John constable and beyond, Jim Ebersole paints 'en plain air'. The resulting studies are every bit as much about paint as they are about what is being painted. This is a show of small paintings turned into very large prints on canvas, a study in what happens when you render a three dimensional scene into two dimensions. April 27 through May 27.

Regina Rex is pleased to present an exhibition of four paintings—one each from artists Britta Deardorff, Jackie Gendel, Juan Gomez and Eric Sall. The four paintings were selected to individually hold a large wall while collectively contributing to a boisterous conversation in a large white room. These paintings are not cool or restrained —they are exuberant both in scale and visual vocabulary. They employ lush palates, body-scale gesture, and elements of the figurative in an unapologetic and visceral appeal to the viewer. April 20-June 3, 2012

Continental Drift, an installation by Einat Imber.

Spring and Renewal, With Spring and Renewal, artist Patrick Cadenhead seeks to create a multi-sensory meditation on religion, laundry, and our denial of decay. Large sculptures caked in common cleaning products make up this installation, as active fountains push water and soap over and through, constantly changing the physical appearence. The smell, look, and other implications of cleanliness are applied to our own sensibilities and desire to wash away and begin again. Our notions of individuality and the sacred are challenged by the resulting entropy, revealing the futile and steady deterioration of our own ideals toward a state of inert uniformity as we strip away our “dirt.” Showing May 5 - June 3, 2012.

Richard Garrison, Richard Garrison analyzes ubiquitious materials and objects from the suburban American landscape, such as Sunday newspaper sale circulars, drive-thru window menu color schemes and product packaging. Through a process of careful scientific-like scrutiny Garrison dissects and restructures the color schemes of common everyday objects and creates Minimalist compositions that expose the beauty in the banal. This deconstruction of quotidian objects and experience is a personal, non-judgmental, examination of the visual, emotional and conceptual aspects of consumerism. April 12 - May 20, 2012
