“Paintings From the Edge” by Mark Demaio— Opens 5/13/10.
"Number 3", 36x 36” Oil on Canvas
Never have we met a better ringmaster than Mark Demaio. His mind has always teetered between genius and perverse, so it’s no surprise Demaio’s works do too. Colorful and whimsical with hauntingly dark undertones, Demaio playfully explores the frightening and absurd in the seemingly innocent. His subjects— goblins, dolls, and circus freaks— are the most shocking of oddities, and yet surprisingly beguiling. They almost always smile, but never without an air of sadness. Catch Demaio’s latest show featuring works from his “Absurd Notions” series at VIG27 with the opening reception on May 13 and you will not only get brownie points from us but be privy to a fantastic performance by Corey Tut. It will be a blast!
Opening Reception May 13, 8 – 11 PM
Performance by Corey Tut
