GALLERY TWO
Louis St. Lewis, The Martyr Louis St. Lewis Bricoleur is a comprehensive exhibition of assemblages and paintings by Chapel Hill-based artist, Louis St. Lewis. When St. Lewis First began creating the assemblage works he viewed them as a way of entertaining himself-art for his personal enjoyment-but did not necessarily plan for them to be exhibited along with his paintings. The experimental works provided a certain freedom for St. Lewis and eventually he began to realize the significance of these pieces within his work overall. The resulting award-winning mixed media works have received enthusiastic critical praise. Photographed by Warhol, sketched by Robert Indiana, and praised by Judy Chicago, few other artists in the south generate as much controversy, conversation, and critical dispute and enthusiasm as NC resident Louis St. Lewis. His work has been exhibited in numerous solo and group shows including recently in the US at Tyndall Gallery, Chapel Hill, NC; Craven Allen Gallery, Durham, NC; Jonathan Ferrari Gallery, New Orleans, LA; Glance Gallery, Raleigh, NC; Lee Hansley Gallery, Raleigh, NC; and Center of the Earth Gallery, Charlotte, NC. St. Lewis’ work has been exhibited internationally at Jernigan Wicker Fine Arts, Paris, France; and at Palazzo Crossetti, Rome, Italy. « Back to Past Exhibitions index
