"Hey, have you ever heard of Matthew Palladino?"
I've been hearing that a lot lately.
And I think we're going to be hearing it a lot more. At just 22 years old, Matthew is setting himself on an artistic path that's going to be pretty exciting to watch. His current solo show at Park Life here in San Francisco is only his second solo appearance in a gallery. The paintings are strong, and have an interesting narrative. Tiger suits, girls on the internet, same sex gang members in love, and one of the most interesting self portraits I've ever seen. I've watched his art evolve over the years and I'm always impressed with what I see.
His show at Park Life is on view until July 13th.
Go check it out.
