Ultra Glob Show – The art of KRK Ryden
In the Project Space: Peat Wollaeger

Opening Reception: Friday, February 25th, 2011 from 7-10pm
On View: February 25th – March 26th, 2011

On February 25th, KRK Ryden is unleashing The Ultra Glob Show upon an unsuspecting world via the WWA gallery. Originating from a drug induced hallucination in 1969, the amorphous glob has been a representative icon and theme of KRK Ryden’s work and this Ultra show stands as the cream of the glob crop. (Try saying that three times fast)

With candy-pop colors, Ryden juxtaposes his globs with the artificially wholesome imagery of the uptight domestic life of 1950s America and various other surreal settings to redefine the way we think about nostalgia and retro pop culture.

Open to the public, The Ultra Glob Show gallery reception is from 7 - 10pm on Friday, February 25th. Ken the Magic Corner God (with possible special guest) will play Theremin live at 9:30. The exhibition will run until March 26th, 2011.

In our Project Space: Peat Wollaeger

Stencil Artist Peat Wollaeger is internationally known for his signature EYE , his raw, colorful characters, and his popping, funky stencil videos. (http://vimeo.com/peat/videos)

Peat's work has been featured on Green Day's 'The Art Of Rock' Tour, in "Electric Windows" at DIA Beacon in New York, at "The Mad Artists Tea Party" in London, as a permanent installation in "Hotel des Arts" in San Francisco, as well as an installation at this past December’s Art Basel Miami.

WWA gallery will be featuring Peat's Latest "EYE" Installation, as seen at Art Basel, along with some of his incredible 3D stencil portraits.
