Back in September Gallery Nucleus opened a solo show from Scott C, that completely slipped our radar. The show was entitled Zombie in Love, and fits perfectly with the Halloween season. The show featuring a series of paintings that made up Scott’s latest book Zombie in Love. The reception had Scott give a book reading, a drawing demo, and fans even showed up dressed like zombies. Looks like it was quite a fun evening. The show and reception photos are online to view, and you can still grab the book from the Nucleus online store (here). Hardcover, 32 pages, and you can order it signed or unsigned.
“Embodiments” by Jeremy Enecio @ Gallery Nucleus
On August 6th at Gallery Nucleus, a new solo show by New York based illustrator Jeremy Enecio opened. The show, entitled “Embodiments”, features 7 new works made with either acrylics or oils. Jeremy has an amazing style, and if your fab of such artists as Phil Hale, Sam Weber, Ashley Wood, and James Jean, then Jeremy’s work is along the same lines of quality, feel, and execution. Take a look at the preview images and then over to the gallery for the rest of the show, also make sure to check out Jeremy’s portfolio page and browse his extensive link section.

Edward Scissorhands 20th Anniversary Tribute @ Gallery Nucleus
This past weekend saw a good number of art shows open up, but on Saturday April 16th, a show sure to draw out your nostalgia for the 90′s was opened at Gallery Nucleus. The theme of the show was the film Edward Scissorhands, and the show was done in honor of the 20th Anniversary. Aside from reminding me how old I am getting, there is around 70 works of art that also reminded one how cool this movie was. Aeron Alfrey, Lorelay Bove, Brigette Barrager, Robert Doucette, Ken Garduno, Edweird Gray, Benjamin Lacombe, Dave Perillo, Aurore Damant, and Israel Sanchez are just a few of the names that submitted art to this show. I really like the painting that Aurore Damant created entitled “Welcome to Suburbia” (shown last). It’s colorful, and the style of drawing is one that I have always been a sucker for.

“Lined in Lead: Works in Graphite” @ Gallery Nucleus
The past week or so hasn’t been filled with the most positive news, but hopefully things will be changing soon for everyone. The art shows however just keep coming, and are always a good way to try and brighten your day up and remind you that there are people out there trying to create beautiful things. The latest group show at Gallery Nucleus is a perfect example of this. Entitled “Lined in Lead: Works in Graphite”, this exhibition focuses art created with nothing more than graphite and paper. A few of the artists used toned paper for a more dynamic look, but overall the entirety of the show is one amazing drawing after another. Work by Wesley Burt, Alexandre Day, Andrew Hem, David Jien, Rodrigo Luff, Joao Ruas, Barron Storey, Rob Sato, Shelly Wan, Allen Williams, and Michael Zulli will be on view until April 11th.

There have been a few Lovecraft inspired shows in the past year, but never with a lineup of artists this exciting. The show is not online yet, but I was able to find a few images floating around Tumblr. If your in the area, make sure you stop by the show, and if not keep your eye on the site.
“Manfungus 1.3″ print by Christian Rex van Minnen
Gallery Nucleus has added some new prints to their online shop, one of which is “Manfungus 1.3″ by Christian Rex van Minnen. I was first taken in with van Minnen’s work due to the similarity to 16th century painter Giuseppe Arcimboldo, although I find the formers work more interesting. The print is a giclee on velvet fine art paper, 18″ x 24″, signed and numbered in an edition of 25.
