Mission School alum Alicia McCarthy has been cleaning out her closet — at least that's the impression one gets from this motley collection of her new and old work. McCarthy's op-art-ish rainbow prisms and Borromean knots have a meticulous delicacy that's frequently hidden beneath the initial impression of "crudeness" imparted by her preference for wood-scrap canvases and colored pencils. Her folksy amateurism seems to be the product of both circumstance and practice — a tension that her drawings negotiate with a knowing wink and a genuine smile.
