This Spring Gallery Night, art enthusiasts will have the opportunity to immerse
themselves in the dynamic and thought-provoking creations of three visionary
William Campbell Gallery artists: Justin Adian, James Marshall, and Harmony Padgett.
Justin Adian's exhibition Reverb will be on view at the Gallery's Byers Avenue location.
James Marshall and Harmony Padgett's exhibitions, The Morphology of Being and No Words
from Thin Skies, respectively, will be on view at the Gallery's Foch Street location.
Each artist brings a unique perspective and technique to their work, promising a diverse
and enriching experience for visitors.
Justin Adian, born in Fort Worth and currently residing in Brooklyn, NY, is renowned for
his captivating abstract wall reliefs characterized by vibrant palettes. His most recent
solo exhibitions, including those at the prestigious Journal Gallery in New York and
Almine Rech Gallery in Brussels, showcase his evolving exploration of color and form.
Adian's paintings for the Spring Gallery exhibition Reverb are crafted from enamel-coated
canvas stretched over wooden armatures. Inspired by Adian's time spent in the Fort Worth
punk rock scene, the exhibition is a testament to his innovative approach and distinctive
style. Adian describes his works as narratives composed of interconnected pieces, offering
viewers a glimpse into his compelling artistic journey.
