Jerry West: The Vernacular Sublime

Pie Projects is pleased to announce the opening of Jerry West:The Vernacular Sublime on Saturday, August 5, 2023, with a reception from 4-6 pm. The exhibition will be on view until August 26, 2023.

‘Jerry West is an artist whose work has captured, with grace and understanding, the contradictions of modern life, along with the evolution of New Mexico art. His visual narratives personify the radical changes that occurred in New Mexico art between the Great Depression and the Great Recession. As a consummate storyteller, a simple cup of coffee will send him off on an unbroken series of reveries that comment on the changes he has experienced.’ – Joseph Traugott, curator and author.
