Matthew Bone Southern Preview

Southern California artists Matthew Bone and Brian Viveros' show "Southern" opened May 9th at Last Rites Gallery in New York.

Matthew's work is provocative and challenging especially when he paints in generous scale. By combining the mass appeal of sex and horror, he gives the insincere pop culture hype machine a good 360 snap of the neck by throwing it right back as a "re-envisioned modern mythology."
