Caldwell Snyder Gallery: David Buckingham - If Only I Had a Brain
Comment by AB: David Buckingham scavenges the deserts for remnants of old painted sheet metal, the colors of which are perfect for his campy commentaries and kicky quotes from the past.

Jenkins Johnson Gallery: Deborah Roberts - Uninterrupted
Comment by AB: "By combining found and manipulated photographs with paintings and drawings, Deborah Roberts creates female portraits that challenge myths and stereotypes attached to young black girls." Fine powerful collage compositions. A winner all the way around. Roberts tells me that each piece of every collage has a specific significance and meaning. Easy choice for Pick of First Thursday.
