Roq La Rue is thrilled to present a stellar group show curated by the inimitable, impeccable art magazine Hi-Fructose!
Ghosts. The word conjures images of spirits, haunted houses, and the afterlife. Historically, artists interpretations of the great unknown have varied widely; whether quaint and comforting, folkloric and narrative, or the bone-chillingly macabre; these visual depictions share a great deal about artists’ beliefs and cultural or regional backgrounds.
With Tiny Ghosts, 40 living artists share their interpretations of what the word “ghost" currently evokes in them. The ghost of a chance; the ghost of one’s own past; the ghost of the "before-times", the ghost of what could be? Hope of better times ahead or nostalgia for what once was? Join us as we thin the veil and explore ghosts in ways comical to poignant, grotesque to transcendent.
Hi-Fructose began as a quarterly print art magazine, founded by artists, Attaboy and Annie Owens in 2005. Hi-Fructose focuses squarely on the art which transcends genre and trend, assuring readers thorough coverage and content that is informative and original. Hi-Fructose showcases an amalgamation of new contemporary, emerging as well distinguished artists, with a spotlight on awe inspiring spectacles from round the world.
