Capla Kesting Fine Art is excited to announce its second annual group show: Sunset & St. Marks, a convocation of the finest upcoming artists from Los Angeles, Miami, Boston and New York City, featuring the work of:

Eduardo Benedetto, Colin Burns, Daniel Edwards, Steve Ellis, Jonny Fenix, Steven Gagnon, Jason Douglas Griffin, David Hochbaum, Justin Kirchoff, Martina Kubinyi, Travis Lindquist, Goldmine Shithouse, David Stoupakis, Dave Tree and Kevin Willis.

Sunset and St. Marks concentrates on the artist’s reaction to the inconsistencies of the modern American dream; piercing the suburban veneer of perfection and revealing the weak infrastructure of war, cultural imperialism, outsourcing and prejudice that America has constructed itself on.

Curator Travis Lindquist has gathered talent from around the country to show us that, despite our differences, there is still a dissident voice trying to reunite the United States.”I think that living in one of the most wealthy and advanced countries of the world, these artists are grateful for the luxurious conditions we are accustomed to, but at the same time they are aware of the paradox this creates. Our luxury is paid for by the destruction of so many other things. Our way of life results in the downfall of other, less privileged societies.”

In accordance with the bi-coastal tradition Sunset & St Marks will have a second showing in Los Angeles later this year.
