Please join us Friday, April 5th from 6-9pm for the opening of, If It Swells, new paintings by Billy T. Lyons. Informed by the artists of the German Expressionism movement, Lyons' work explores the realities of growing up in the impoverished, urban environment of Rochester, NY. Tension is the underlying theme, presenting the viewer with both the dire choices youth in a city face, as well as the often harrowing circumstantial results of coming of age in a dilapidated, rust-belt city. Expect deep hues, bold lines and dark humor as only Billy T. Lyons can deliver. On view 4/5-4/27.
