Last Rites Gallery has just posted some pictures of the reception for their latest show “Anathema”. The two artists from the show, Shawn Barber and Vincent Castiglia were there as well as Paul Booth and Genevive Zacconi the duo behind the gallery.
Looks like it was an amazing night, it’s also great to be able to see the painting next to people as it helps show the size of the works. Head on over and check out the pics from this amazing show, courtesy of Steve Prue.
Opening up this December 13th at the Last Rites Gallery in New York is “Anathema”, featuring new paintings by Shawn Barber and Vincent Castiglia. The opening Reception is from 7-11pm, and Shawn will be there signing his new book Forever and Ever.
This is Shawn’s first collection of erotic works, they are beautifully rendered as all of his paintings are and very intense. I can only imagine what seeing them in person would be like. Vincent also has some new erotic inspired pieces as well, and if you look in the shop you will find prints from both artists. There is two new prints from Shawn, one Last Rites Exclusive of his “Portrait of the artist: Paul Booth” and another of Genevive Zacconi.
