Euphorion surveys the Bay Area art scene through painting, drawing, and multimedia works. Yoon Lee's dense, crisply architectural, abstract paintings employ a hybrid approach to organic, urban spatial articulations. Well-known denizens Chris Johanson, Jo Jackson, and Clare Rojas are among the artists who share a retro, graffiti, and illustration-based folk style. Of course, any Bay Area exhibition would be incomplete without figurehead artist Barry McGee, whose Untitled assembles dozens of diminutive abstractions into a metonymy of the entire group's sensibility. All included embrace jubilant color and witty draftsmanship; their works reflect a layered assortment of influences and visual idioms forced into coexistence — not unlike the city from which they hail.
