Joao Ruas for “The Gilded Age” at Thinkspace Gallery.

Opening on Saturday, September 12th at Thinkspace Gallery in Los Angeles, California is the extremely anticipated three person exhibition, “The Gilded Age,” featuring the epic work of Joao Ruas, Esao Andrews and Aaron Horkey. Above is Joao’s contribution for the show which as a whole is described as “[A] fortuitous result of a seemingly unlikely petproject, and a rare and unprecedented opportunity for collectors, fans and enthusiasts to see these three illustrative giants wring life from inanimate sands.”

Joao is one of my favorite artists working in the world today. His work has been described as imagery that “explores the universal themes of transition, power, strength, transformation and loss with an empathetic tenor.” Ruas has a love for detail unmatched and his work inhabits the purist realm of imagination. He’s gifted in his ability to bring forth exotic imagery from the dimension we do not possess to our senses here, in this place.

If you’re in Los Angeles, do not miss this show.
