In the Green Street Gallery exhibition: "SOLO", Jamaica
Plain artist Joe Wardwell presents the culmination of 5 years of
work creating amazing hybrids of the music he grew up with and his
favorite paintings from classical art history. The show is Wardwell’s
first solo exhibition in Boston and features his most ambitious
work to date: two, huge "altarpieces" which depict a pantheon
of his music idols. Both of these six foot by five foot oil on canvas
works place members of famous Rock 'n' roll and Heavy Metal bands,
roadies lifting stacks of Marshall amps and nude groupies against
a glowing, romantically clouded sky from a study by the Italian
Baroque painter Giambattista Tiepolo. The poses of the loosely painted
figures are borrowed from vintage album covers and seamlessly incorporated
into a “super-group grouping” spiraling into the clouds.

Green Street roof installation by Lina Maria Giraldo
digital prints attached to glass
Giraldo creates environments that remind viewers
of the complexities of the "drug war" which devastates
the ecology of her home in Colombia. The artist uses the beauty
of the poppie flower installed in windows which also harbor menacing
crop dusting planes which swoop and fly above them. By placing these
images against the sky seen in the background Giraldo crreates a
feeling that the planes are above us, at this moment, making these
distant political, economic and environmental struggles more visible
to people in the U.S. --James Hull, Curator
