Cinders Gallery finds a new art collective to love
BY ANGELA ASHMAN

We never really contemplated moving to Baltimore until we heard about Closed Caption Comics, the Baltimore-based art collective that publishes a colorful comic zine of the same name and puts on shows, plays in bands (Witch Hat, Bears and Pieces), runs Lost Ghost Records, and organizes the all-girl performance festival, Puss Fust (see how much fun they have in B-more at closedcaptioncomics.blogspot.com). Now, the collective is dropping its killer work on Brooklyn with its show titled Adolescent Rage at Cinders Gallery. You'll see drawings, paintings, prints, collages, and zines featuring an array of manic styles and fun characters that may just inspire you to peruse Baltimore's Craigslist for one of its dirt-cheap apartments.

meet the artist Liam Roberts

By -
Liam Roberts’ fertile imagination transmutes images into abstract-like compositions of strik- ing energy and brushwork. He says that he is not a maker of pictures, but a maker of paintings, and that the viewer completes the work, not simply by looking but by the labour of seeing. Shakespeare, as usual, says it best: “Let every eye negotiate for itself . . .” Roberts’ mediums are acrylic, gouache, collage and ink. This show comprises recent and earlier works. Liam has exhibited in New York, London, Paris, Palm Springs, Geneva and Nicosia. He is represented in Dublin by Peppercanister Gallery.   www.liamroberts.com  /  roberts l@copper.ne
