Billed as "punk Mark Twain defiance," Wayne White's latest show features the recent collection of his famous word paintings and sculptures. White uses phrases like Drop the Country Boy Act and Dude Starts Freakin' as the main characters in his odes to the American landscape. Previously, he integrated the letters with romantic landscape lithographs that could be found at thrift stores; for this show, White expands off the canvas, sculpting characters one on top of the other to create country-sign inspired totem poles that double as classic Americana.
