Karla Wozniak's exhibition of new paintings takes a shot at the endless string of strip malls and billboards that lines nearly every roadside in America. But the painter's caricature of sprawl and development isn't all diatribe — her striking compositions, bold palette, and Spartan skies also betray the observations of a keen diarist with a knack for highlighting the startling elements of the mundane. Although Wozniak is now based in Brooklyn, the painter originally hails from Berkeley; the change of setting is most evident in her imagery, with its vibrant, funky patchwork of small business placards and corporate logos, and in the notable absence of a natural horizon.
