07 GERALD DAVIS

Hairy Castle, 2001,
oil on canvas, 24" x 18"

In a colorful break from Davis’s more neutral paintings and graphite drawings, Hairy Castle represents the artist’s more romantic side with just a hint of the playful perversion that he explores in other works. With a focus on painting and drawing, and an MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, Davis has shown throughout the Midwest and, within the last several years, the major coastal art epicenters. He has participated in group shows at John Connelly Presents and Greene Naftali in New York and Black Dragon Society in Los Angeles; he has had two solo exhibitions at Black Dragon Society in Los Angeles.
