Summary
Tune Yer Head' presents new and recent work by Texas born, LA-based artist Aaron Curry. Known primarily for his colossal biomorphic metal sculptures and more recently for his neon, cosmic paintings, Aaron Curry's work features a unique synthesis of the modernist canon and contemporary cultural touchstones. Influenced by artists such as Pablo Picasso, Alexander Calder, Kurt Schwitters, Francis Picabia and Basil Wolverton, Curry creates an explosive mashup of color, texture and scale. The exhibition at "The Bass" and the accompanying catalog survey the diversity of his practice in terms of materiality and form, highlighting the interplay between painting, sculpture and collage.
