Opening Reception: The Subtle Horror of the Everyday - New work by Finley Coyl 

Friday, January 06, 2012, 06:00pm - 09:00pm 

CSC, 1349 Mission Street (at Grace Street between 9th and 10th streets) in San Francisco

Viewings by appointment January 6 - 27, 2012  and at other CSC Events.

Finley Coyl’s new work will be installed in the CSC gallery for January as a mural-sized unravelling of the grotesque, the fantasized, the ridiculous, the pretty, the struggle, and the obscene. These large-scale drawings in marker, pencil and paint on canvas with found objects and digital prints indirectly reference Picasso’s Guernica from a perspective of queer potential amidst a crumbling economic landscape.

Coyl’s fantastic experiments in large-scale figurative work will transform the entire CSC space. While this is a traditional wall-based piece, it would not be a stretch to speak of this work in terms of an installation as much as a drawing or painting.
