Gregory Euclide’s “Preservation Paradox” at Hashimoto Contemporary.

Opening on Saturday, September 8th, 2018 at Hashimoto Contemporary in San Francisco, California is artist Gregory Euclide’s solo exhibition, “Preservation Paradox.”

Euclide utilizes his signature assemblage and relief-style sculpture to tell the story of the “Preservation Paradox.” His newest series of works, titled Scrapes, are masterfully rendered yet meticulously abstracted landscape paintings which investigate the environmental cost of art materials.

Says Euclide of the series, “Acrylic paint, a petroleum product, is used to generate the illusion of land or water when in a pile or scraped across the surface, as well as thinned out and used to generate the illusion of landscape.”  The Scrape series is a study not only of landscape painting, but of paint itself. Thick swaths of acrylic paint serve as both figure and ground, revealing the material’s unpredictable nature as well as its ability to be manipulated into representations of nature.

The exhibition will be on view until September 29th, 2018.

[im-depressed-but-funny-blog]

For a while i thought you meant that you had to not tell people that god was real.

Today the Department of Awesomely Good Deeds salutes every person who’s ever looked down at a snail and been so concerned that someone else might come along and step on it that they took the time to paint its wee shell. It’s an act of kindness that also enables the Good Deed Doer to transform said snail’s shell into whatever they fancy, such as a tiny shark, a miniature rainbow or pac-man.

Should you decide to become a mollusk minder yourself, please make sure to be gentle and only use non-toxic paint. Anything else could harm the snail, which rather defeats the whole process.

Once you’ve finished painted, be sure to wash your hands with a bar of Snail Oil Beauty Soap.
