Consummate visual storyteller Evah Fan continues her Scheherazade-like seduction with a new batch of works at Richard Heller Gallery. Her small drawings of mundane, everyday objects — manila envelopes, reading glasses, sport water bottles — are whimsical and sweet on the outside, and subversively sour on the inside. It's this duality that makes her work so tempting, as the simplistic narratives often distract from a more sinister plot. A concurrent solo show of work by Randall Sellers tells stories too, but in a different style. Sellers' graphite drawings use a vintage, post-illustration sensibility to spin charming, romantic, and slightly cheeky tales.
