The Mystery Trend, Wallspace, New York, 2012
Press Release:
Taking its name from Ron Nagle’s Bay Area band, which was an early part of the “San Francisco Sound” before disbanding on the eve of the Summer of Love, The Mystery Trend features five artists working across a range of media who are united by something ineffable in their work, rather than by a similar approach or style. The pieces included relate to one another transitively, through lyrical formalism as much as through a share interest in process and finish; they are infused with exuberant combinations of grace, wit, humor and a sense of play.
