MACRODONS @ AQUA ART MIAMI

Last weekend Miami hosted the sixth installment of Art Basel Miami Beach -along with all the accompanying satellite art fairs that have sprung up around it. This year The Public Trust exhibited at the Aqua Hotel in South Beach, near the main fair. As can be seen above, a small group of MACRODONS were present for this weekend of art excess, among the work of other Public Trust artists including Steven Hopwood-Lewis, Brent Ozaeta, and Evan Hecox.

It looks like this Macrodon ended up with one bulked up lobster claw, and one skinny, rubbery, alien appendage.

Tonight I saw a pretty good painting show by Dan Perfect at Road Agent. The work is fun, vibrant, energetic, chaotically cohesive, and as visually disparate as those last two descriptors, combining a cartoon aesthetic with a design conscious stream of consciousness abstract expressionism take on urban street art. Just follow the links, and you'll see what I mean.

At The Public Trust, Brent Ozaeta shows acrylic screenprints on canvas and paper, depicting sketchbook-style illustrations, combining various drawing styles in an almost collage fashion. The highlights include a series of printed works crudely sewn together like a quilt, as well as a free standing wall repetitively plastered with posters of the same line drawings and cartoons.
