Carrie Secrist Gallery says…

During the quiet months of summer, dealers often turn to group exhibitions as an easy way to trot out the work of multiple artists. In some ways, Clouds, et al fits this model, made even friendlier with a seemingly mild theme. Some pieces float by, all pretty blue skies and white wisps, but Secrist calls in the help of a few outside artists to take the topic in more unusual directions. Eva Schlegel's silkscreen prints on lead — dark, palpably heavy, and vaguely ominous — are an unlikely breath of fresh air, while, in a striking diptych, Ken Fandell digitally combines photographs of whirling clouds and glaring suns to create a delirious vision of a volatile sky.
