Barry Whistler Gallery: The Beat Goes On

My 3rd stop today was at one of may favorite galleries. Barry Whistler featured work of Southern California artists since 1965. Barry consistently puts on the strongest exhibitions of all the Dallas and possibility Texas galleries. This exhibition did not disappoint.



Guy de Cointet, "Dessert", 2006, cardboard and paint, "The Marriage of Electricity and Magnetism, 1971, ink on paper

Robert Wilhite, a new favorite of mine - "Briefcase Nuke", 2009, leather and lacquer on wood.

Works by Larry Bell, Ed Ruscha, and Wallace Berman

Chris Burden, "Lucky Sub", 1987, prototype for "All the Submarines of the United States of America", cardboard, vinyl thread
