Preview: “Monkey in the Middle” by Ken Keirns @ My Plastic Heart

Posted on Jun 17, 2011

Opening tonight, Friday June 17th, is a new solo exhibition from Ken Keirns entitled “Monkey in the Middle”. This new show features toys, paintings, and “other such nonsense”, and with Kens unique style and ability to create these beautifully rendered portraits, it’s bound to be a great show. You can also see in the couple of the paintings that he has added some pop culture reference, such as Yoda and even Oscar the Grouch, if that’s pop culture now or nostalgia I have no idea. Keep your eye on the site for the full show to be opened up, and if you are in the area make sure to stop by the reception that opens from 6-9pm.
