Joshua Liner Gallery is pleased to present ‘Crash & Burn’, an exhibition of new mixed-media works by Canadian artist Ben Tour. This is Tour’s first solo show with the gallery.

Incorporating acrylic, ink, Flashe, marker, and spray paint, Tour’s suite of fifteen works on canvas and on paper meld character and mood in expressionistic portraits. The works’ exclusively female subjects serve as cathartic vehicles for the artist’s own emotions. Not so much depicted as suggested, these figures sit deep within a frenetic atmosphere of cutting lines and pools of blue or other dark hues, with splashes of bright color like outbursts of pent-up feeling.

Show opens Saturday July 11th, 6 – 9pm. Exhibition runs until August 8th.
