DUKE RILEY – ‘See You At The Finish Line’
\nopened NOV 1, 2013
\nthe show runs thru JAN 11, 2014
\nMAGNAN METZ GALLERY<\/a> – 521 West 26th St, CHELSEA, NYC.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\na picturesque MARY GO ROUND played the accordion and sang sad sea-worthy ditties, whilst, DUKE RILEY, walked through the opening crowd . . anonymous. <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nDUKE RILEY, in full face ‘mask. I mean, it was the night after Halloween !!
\nbut strangely, even though he was<\/em> the only one in ‘costume’, and perhaps the only one in full dress shirt and bright blue tie (!!) – that only seemed to make him blend more, into . . the crowd.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nthe opening was so crowded, it was hard to see the art, in full. but no worries, it resonated throughout. there were large scale wall pieces, smaller drawings, ‘bird-eye’ view videos, artifact display tables, two charts of tiny pigeon ‘backpacks’, large scale fantasy Chinese zodiac animal masks, and more . . . <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nDUKE RILEY, look closely !!
\nit’s . . . ‘shell’ art. DUKE has exhibited large scale mosaic murals before, which were made with small ceramic tiles, but these gorgeous things, were composed entirely . . of seashells. and they were very mandala-like.
\nas opposed to ‘narrative’.
\nthough come to think of it, they all did bear messages, as in, ‘letters’ \/ ‘words’.<\/p>\n

oh, yeah. give me NEW YORK CITY over MIAMI, any day.
\ngritty over sandy, is my motto.<\/p>\n

gritty vs sandy ?
\ngritty wins.<\/p>\n
