Butridge Gallery: Refigured: Radical Realism

"Showcasing some of Austin’s finest realist figurative artists, across a variety of media, with their newest, most exciting work." Sounds almost humdrum, right? Just another standard gallery promo? But, listen – you know how something can be so powerful as to, how we say, fuck you up but in a good way? Well, this is one of those things. This is one of those exhibitions. At the Dougherty, yes. Because Jennifer Balkan and Dana Younger and Alejandra Almuelle and Karen Maness and Felice House and more.
