Curated by Jeff Grant, Pared Back presents the works by Mike Amrhein, Karla Carballar, Jerry Gun and Ellen Takata

With works selected over the course of two years, Pared Back, curated by Jeff Grant, is not based on one singular concept or theme. Instead, the cohesive strength of Pared Back lies in its rich, complex atmosphere. This atmosphere is the result of a proliferation of specific relationships that exist between the various works as well as overarching consistencies that occur throughout the entire exhibition. Pared Back is quiet, low in tone, and humorous; contemplative, and focused. The exhibition title refers not only to the relatively short list of artists, but also to the artists’ acute observations, which are subtly interpreted through a minimum amount of information, duration, and/or visual noise.
