VENTANA244 presents OYSTERS WITH LEMON, an exhibition in three parts featuring works selected by Andrew Huston and Michael Zahn. Informed by close readings of genre, facture, and style, OYSTERS WITH LEMON regards the poetics of the concrete image while drawing from a source in postwar Lettrist 'metagraphie'. In turn, the exhibition sets out staged tableaux of form, color, and scale imagined relative to the sequent, the discrete, and the infinitesimal.
