Richard Schemmerer: Dream, Inc.—Awakening From the American Dream

RICHARD SPEER

Friday February 01

Cock Gallery
625 NW Everett St., No. 106

Using painting, sculpture, and collage, artist Richard Schemmerer takes on the well-worn theme of the American Dream. Cock Gallery founder Paul Soriano has curated this selection of works from Schemmerer’s prolific output. The artist’s paintings typically coalesce around geometric abstraction, and his collages update a problematic medium with genuine flair and originality. But can he find new inspiration in such a general, hackneyed theme as the American Dream? Watch this space in coming weeks for a capsule or full review. Jan. 3-Feb. 2.
