Jim Riswold
Augen (DeSoto Bldg) We think Jim Riswold is overexposed. We’re tired of writing about him. We’re sick of loving his work and going on and on about how witty and slyly subversive his photographs are. Problem is, he’s amazing. And witty. And slyly subversive. So we can’t help but be excited about his new show at Augen, Art People and a Cow, which takes on the incestuous, personality-driven art world the same way Riswold has taken on Adolf Hitler figurines and “Jesus Loves You” billboards. Roy Lichtenstein? Riswold has him in his crosshairs. Basquiat? Check. Damien Hirst? Watch out. These and other sacred cows of pop and post-pop art are the subjects of the artist’s latest parody. We look forward to the day Jim Riswold’s work becomes dull and tedious. Until then, we can’t wait to see this show. 716 NW Davis St., 224-8182. Closes Nov. 28.

The abstract patterns create an energy and tension around the birds. The colors float, compress or explode around the bird. The ground of the work is an abstracted response to the image. Have another look.
