Opening reception with the artist: Saturday, February 1, 5-7pm

William Stone: Apperception, an exhibition of mixed media work, ranging from paintings to kinetic sculpture. Visual artist William Stone traffics in word play to create provocative and humorous works utilizing woodworking, sculptural and painting techniques. Stone plays with audience expectations and subverts the utilitarian purpose of functional objects, like desks and chairs, to imbue them with layered meaning beyond their formal ideal. Presented in this exhibition of both old and new work is a cross-section of Stone’s keen visual wit and expert craftsmanship representing work that ArtForum referred to as “endgame conceptualism with a bite.”
