UPCOMING EXHIBITION:
JIM CHATELAIN: CORRECTING PAST MISTAKES
SELECTED ABSTRACTIONS | 2001 -2024
On View: September 7 - November 24, 2024
This exhibition presents an extensive survey of abstract paintings from the past twenty-three years by Jim Chatelain, a key participant in Detroit’s storied Cass Corridor artistic milieu. Chatelain is a painter who subverts the conventions of painting and collapses standard notions of good taste with a beguiling body of work that is by turns crude yet sophisticated, grotesque yet elegant, concrete yet elusive, provocative and humorous.
