Runs from September 7th to October 9th, 2007.

Sheridan uses an array of colorful and always surprising images and words which are both art and also come from and target American working class. The images contain compelling and controversial elements which cannot be separated from the great energy that has always marked the poor and blue collar working culture of the country. Similar to where jazz, rock, Hip-Hop, carnival, cartoons, dream machines, comix and games like pinball come from, these works on canvas explode with superheroes, pinups, cars, numbers, logos and images from the deep (or not so deep) popular unconscious as well as from the most persuasive propaganda machine ever - advertising.

Notes from the Curator:
This is John’s fourth time here at the Trans-View and being the man who started the gallery, expect the unexpected. John’s work is cutting edge and forays into subjects that question our over commercialized, sex infused, car and sports crazy icon-based society. Did I say too much? Another Must –See show at the Lucky Ju Ju!
