Long-Sharp Gallery announces a solo exhibit of small-scale paintings by British Pop artist David Spiller (1942-2018). Each piece (measuring 40 x 40 centimeters / 15.75 x 15.75 inches) has a provenance of the artist’s Estate in the United Kingdom; none has been shown in the United States before this exhibit.
The exhibit - “David Spiller: Small Works. Big Magic.” – contains some twenty works that span three decades of the artist’s career. Each provides insight into a different facet of the artist’s process and unique style. In these works, Spiller explores and combines floating color dots, (cartoon) portraiture, and scribbled song lyrics and text – some of the techniques that would later become synonymous with the name David Spiller.
The exhibit opens April 16, 2022 in two very different locations. The physical exhibition may be visited at Long-Sharp Gallery Indianapolis, (1 North Illinois Street, Suite A, Indianapolis IN 46204). The virtual exhibition opens simultaneously in Long-Sharp Gallery | Virtual (accessible 24/7 on the gallery’s website).
