Summer Wheat at samsøn, VOLTA NY

Written by Andrew Katz Katz

Article hero image
We last featured Summer Wheat in our list of 11 To Watch In 2011: Editor's Picks, featuring our picks for the emerging artists to keep an eye on this year, and her booth for samsøn, Boston, at VOLTA NY doesn't disappoint one bit. Her acrylic and oil portraits are downright haunting, and the pair of three-dimensional painted objects exhibited here reveal deep, romantic sculptural qualities in her paintings. Not to be missed if you make it to VOLTA NY this weekend. Don't miss samsøn (and our interview with owner/director Camilo Alvarez) in our recent video with Future Shipwreck at Art Los Angeles Contemporary.  More Summer Wheat pics after the jump!
