Jeremy Deprez

Feuer/Mesler is pleased to present Common Nouns, an exhibition of new work by Jeremy DePrez.

Common Nouns is a collection of paintings developed through attempts to momentarily experience and analyze articles culled from DePrez’s immediate environment. DePrez imposes humor, self-described awkwardness, and a variety of painterly strategies to build up a visual and material history within each painting. These impositions encourage the formation of irregularly shaped paintings that overlap and inform one another in a way that transcends their sources objectivity and propels them into a more allegorical space.

Jeremy Deprez (b. 1983, Portland, ME) received both his BFA and MFA from University of Houston, and continues to live and work in Houston, Texas. This is his second solo exhibition with the gallery, following his first with Zach Feuer Gallery in 2014. Recent exhibitions include those at Texas Gallery, White Flag Projects and Luxembourg & Dayan.
