Eddie Martinez's Studio Drawings at Half Gallery

Last week, Eddie Martinez's new show opened at Half Gallery. The studio drawings on display recall modern masters (Picasso and Dubuffet so name a few), but with an abstract approach. Glenn O'Brien, in the introduction he wrote for Eddie's upcoming book, describes the artist's work as the following: "This is your brain. This is your brain on drugs. This is your brain on drugs at war with a 6% interest mortgage in the LaGuardia flight path. This is Hamlet's brain contemplating Horatio's skull on caffeine vibrating in tune with the lightbulbs at 60 cycles per second listening to Lee Perry while mystery jets spray contrails over Brooklyn to the rumble of the J train. It's all about man and nature and what comes after." After that, how could I add anything else? Check the pics from the opening below.

Studio Drawings closes on September 26th, 2012.
