After having spent the last few generations ridding themselves of modernism's pungent aftertaste, the art world's contemporary painters are finally up to the task of revisiting their forebears' tropes without fear of a critical feeding frenzy. San Francisco's own Chris Lux is one such artist; his exhibition of new paintings and prints, Faux Modernist Posters of Four Letter L Word Nouns, follows its title's clearly spelled-out theme — offering up a caustically cheeky art-brut primer, while bridging the gap between knowing send-up and honest stylistic exploration.
