In honor of National Wildlife Day we’re proud to feature the paintings of Josh Keyes.  These bleakly humorous scenes are influenced by the futurist ideas of Buckminster Fuller and deeply concerned with environmental issues. Any city dweller who has heard the banshee cry of a mountain lion driven to search our garbage heaps for food will see the near-future reality of Keyes’ City Limits where a young buck gently approaches a parking meter. Like a diorama at the Natural History Museum, it is as though we are seeing animals both as they will be and, not so far in the future, as they once were. Josh’s work will be featured in a solo show beginning October 22nd at the legendary Jonathan LeVine gallery.
