Honor Fraser Gallery is hosting “A Standard,” its third exhibition with Los Angeles-based artist Kaz Oshiro, currently on view through February 25, 2017.Oshiro's newest subject is the I-beam, the standard construction material that, along with ironwork, characterized the Industrial Revolution. Steel I-beams are emblematic of the rise of an American industrialist class who amassed unprecedented fortunes during a period in which business was largely unregulated. Oshiro conflates painting and sculpture to explore our perception of dimension and illusion. Using conventional painting materials, he builds three-dimensional replicas of familiar, mass-produced objects like kitchen cabinets or trash dumpsters to scale, painting stretched planes of canvas with exacting detail. The simplicity of composition in the exhibition is a homage to minimal art.The exhibition is on view at 2622 S. LA Cienega Boulevard, Los Angeles, California 90034, United States.For details, visit: http://www.honorfraser.com/?s=current&eid=134Click on the slideshow for a sneak peek of the exhibition.
