Working in the Lou, a solo exhibition by Kevin W. Kennedy Professor of Art Katharine Kuharic, is on display through May 5 at the Bruno David Gallery in St. Louis.
The gallery website calls Kuharic’s work “alive” and says she “manipulates and reconfigures images that our culture has been desensitized to, shocking the viewer and asking the audience to reconsider what they think they know. Taking stock pictures from junk mail, newspapers, magazines and other sources, Kuharic meticulously paints images to create reconfigured histories. Her works highlight investigations into American celebrity, pop and suburban culture, and personal identity politics.”
