Dialectics and the Decommodified: The Spectres of Capital

Morgan Craig

Textures of the Southwest

Robert Huebel

All the Pretty Little Horses

Chris Waters

February 18 – March 19, 2022

Buckham Gallery is pleased to announce three concurrent exhibitions featuring Morgan Craig, Robert Huebel and Chris Waters.

Morgan Craig sees architectural structures as both repositories and vehicles for memory, influencing culture and identity, by providing a tangible framework through which facets of society can be expressed. Dialectics and the Decommodified: The Spectres of Capital deals with how identity is influenced by the types of architectural edifices present in a given landscape. Within the realm

of Jacques Derrida’s theory of Hauntology, the paintings speak of the slow disintegration of the future, and the abysmal fragmentation of the past.

Local artist, Robert Huebel was inspired by the love and fascination he has of the American Southwest. Textures of the Southwest explores the special charm of the Southwest: rich in culture, traditions, religions, landscapes, textures and spiritual energy.

Flint artist Chris Waters brings forth portraits of unheralded horses; not ribbon or race winners, not the best examples of their breeds, but they are exalted by the love and care of their owners. Loosely influenced by the works of Kehinde Wiley, All the Pretty Little Horses is a celebration of Waters’ love of horses.
