A buxom blonde nude with bright red lips plays joyously atop a white fluffy cloud, stars overhead. Beneath her cloud, crude blue lettering reads, "We are just complicated animals." This neon sculpture, by Dan Attoe, casts a cool glow through a gallery that was once a farmhouse, highlighting the kind of tongue-in-cheek wit that animates much of Eric Fischl's own work. In this multi-generational group exhibition, curated by Eric Fischl, representations of mankind's most basic and everlasting instinct-the compulsion to copulate-waver from existential to carnal in a vein that is often ribbed with humor. While none of Fischl's own work appears in the show, his taste is everywhere apparent.
