DISGRUNTLED DEVELOPMENTS
Kevin Curry Baseera Khan Jeff Mueller
Anya Tish Gallery is delighted to present Disgruntled Developments, a three person show curated by Houston based artist and critic Garland Fielder, bringing together three emerging artists whose work explores the conspiring yet complex nature between urban dissatisfaction and current events.
The international dialogue between the richly layered multi-media works by Indian-American, New York based Baseera Khan, the homegrown graffiti and publicly sprawled works of Chicago based Jeff Mueller, and the locally sourced assemblages of abandoned Hurricane Ike signage by Houston artist Kevin Curry, produce an excitingly global and visual frenzy of fantastical and political sensibilities. Together they question the fundamental need for the personal versus the homogenized public, alongside a desire for Constructivist aesthetics over consumerist pathologies.
