On October 24th, Last Rites Gallery presents it’s second annual 13th Hour group exhibit, celebrating the Halloween season. The show features artists from around the globe, working in an array of mediums including painting, photography, sculpture, and film. Among the talent included in this exhibit is Chet Zar, who’s work has been described by TOOL’s Adam Jones as “A modern twist crashing into a classical approach. Beautiful and scary”; David Stoupakis, who’s Gothic surrealistic work has been seen on KORN’s album covers along with others; Shawn Barber, who, along with lecturing about painting globally, has shown his dark, tattoo-inspired works on canvas around the world. From gothic elegance to finely crafted grotesquery, the beauty within the darkness is embraced and brought into the spotlight. The spirit of Halloween has never looked so good.

Clarkson, Christopher Conte, Coro, Brendan Danielsson, Ewelina Ferruso, Fred Harper, Stephanie Henderson, Robert Hernandez, Kris Kuksi, Craig LaRotonda, Jeff McMillan, Gilbert Oh, Pooch, Anthony Pontius, Dan Quintana, Celeste Rappone, Paul Rumsey, Martina Secondo Russo, David Stoupakis, Tin, Brian Viveros, Jasmine Worth, Genevive Zacconi and Chet Zar.
