'UPKEEP': Yun Shin, Wansoo Kim & Paul Collins

Elephant Gallery

Sat, May 10 - 28
All day

FULL DESCRIPTION

Elephant Gallery specializes in art that surprises. That’s what makes events at the Buchanan Street space so exciting, and what makes the artists who show there so eager to return. Paul Collins is a longtime Elephant artist — his mural on the building’s exterior, “Boomtown Beaver,” was painted back in 2017. Lately, when he hasn’t been acting as a courtroom artist for the ongoing trial of disgraced former state House Speaker Glen Casada, he’s been making paintings that document the year his family has spent in flux around his daughter’s treatment for Hodgkin disease. For UPKEEP, he’s joined by other artists whose work, according to the exhibition statement, “examines the tension between wear and care, exploring the productive resistance of maintenance in the face of disorder.” Wansoo Kim, whose pieces were central to the 2024 exhibition Dance in the Waterfall at Red Arrow, will be showing oversized ceramic vessels with surprising details in their interiors. Yun Shin, a Korea-born, Clarksville-based artist, makes work that seems both meticulously rendered and easily torn apart. See how these artists interpret the idea of keeping up appearances this Saturday at Elephant. LAURA HUTSON HUNTER
