A solo exhibition of artworks by Dan Barry

Opening Reception: Saturday, May 5th, 2012 from 7-10pm
On View: May 5th, 2012 – June 2nd, 2012

This May, MondoPOP Gallery presents Combinatoria, a solo exhibition by the fabulous Dan Barry. Combinatoria is comprised of several groupings of small mixed media works – ranging from “anthropomorphic botanicals” to “fruit headed youths” – from “tiny repeated word abstractions” to “drippy babies”.  Barry’s process beautifully layers, drips and spills with worn found images – with tight mechanical pencil drawing and other idiosyncratic mark making.  Combinatoria will be Dan Barry’s first solo exhibition in Europe.
