Marc Dennis: Love in the Time of Corona
April 22, 2021 @ 8:00 am - June 5, 2021 @ 5:00 pm
GAVLAK is pleased to announce Love in the Time of Corona, the gallery’s first solo presentation of work by Brooklyn-based painter, Marc Dennis. The exhibition features a selection of new paintings in Dennis’ signature hyperrealist style, all produced during the prolonged period of social isolation experienced by people around the world, uncannily reflecting a near-universal state of existence in which work, leisure, and communications have been collapsed into a vast, seamless universe of images. By co-opting imagery from celebrated paintings of centuries past, including works by Caravaggio and Ingres, Dennis’ works find new meaning in the hallowed lineage of Old Master painting to explore contemporary questions of artistic ownership, pictorial representation, and the consumption of images. Love in the Time of Corona opens on April 22 and will be on view through June 5, 2021 at GAVLAK Palm Beach
