Mike Davis offers new whimsical paintings in his third show at the 111 Minna Gallery, a continuation of the Northern Renaissance while blending the artist’s own period. “Haring Legs as Dogs” begins on January 10 and is until February 29 in the space. Davis appeared on our website for the last time.
“Davis has a multi-faceted interest, began painting in 1997 and attributed much of his inspiration to watching his mother engage in craft projects in childhood and immersing herself in art history throughout her career,” the gallery said. “From helping his mother with activities ranging from woodworking, hand-tooling leather, and remodeling the family’s home, to engaging with ancient art and Netherlands painting from the Northern Renaissance, Davis is a self-taught painter, who continues to render complex paintings of surealist life, embedded with symbols of mortality, folly, and hubris, fixed within whimsical compositions.”
