ROME-ANTIC DELUSIONS Art By Jeremy Fish
Drago invited Jeremy Fish to come to Rome and create site-specific works, a remix of Jeremy’s images, with an Italian touch added to his usual cast of characters and rich iconography. Fish’s symbiotic work with the Eternal City uses a library of symbols and characters to tell real-life narratives in a surreal way and alter the established order. His vivid imagination stems from his bilateral artistic persona, which combines solitary introspection with the exuberance of changing perspectives.

TOLERANCE The Art of Chris Mars NEW By Chris Mars
“Minneapolis artist Chris Mars is living proof that F. Scott Fitzgerald was dead wrong when he said there are no second acts in American lives. Though famous in the 1980s as the drummer for alt-rock heroes The Replacements, Mars eventually left the music world behind entirely to focus on the visual arts, now specializing in stunningly evocative macabre portraits.” —The Onion A.V.
