DAVE YOAS Individually Twisted Appropriately Socially Distanced Artist's Reception Saturday, June 5th from 1 - 4 pm Meet the artist and see the work in the Real!   Dave Yoas, Jungle Bettys, tin collage, 31" x 26" x 5"               Photo by Philip Cohen May 28th - July 10th ___________ Open Fridays and Saturdays, noon to 5 pm masks required in the gallery   Transmission Gallery is pleased to present Dave Yoas: Individually Twisted; see it IRL through July 10th.   Yoas is not shy about tweaking potentially loaded subjects or venturing into raucous territory in these wildly imaginative and colorful cut tin collage pieces. The work invites a careful viewing to take in the complexities, revel in the imagery and discover the hidden surprises. Of special note is So Shoot Me, an extravagant lighted 3d cut tin shooting gallery piece, reminiscent of carnival shooting galleries, chock full of heroes, villains and sidekicks. Richly evocative, this piece sets up a fascinating sense of glee, counterbalanced with the discomfort of recognizing historic paragons of virtue lined up with the world's worst villains as equal opportunity targets, just for fun. That kind of edge runs throughout the exhibition, holding the work open to layers of meaning; everything is not as it seems at first glance.   More About Individually Twisted Also at the Gallery: Josh Katz Mural  Josh Katz recently finished an 11 ft. mural out on the Transmission Gallery deck.
