Barry McGee: SB Mid Summer Intensive @ MCASB

On July 1st, Museum of Contemporary Art Santa Barbara opened a new solo exhibition from Barry McGee for the summer. I have to say Barry’s shows never disappoint. This specific installation by the San Francisco artist fills the entire museum which is basically one large room and it’s a sensory overload of paintings, sculptures, photos, and personal ephemera of the artist. The attention to detail in each work and the seeming chaos of how the individual works are paired together create new experiences with each run through the floor.

As they say, a picture says a thousand words, so I’ll shut up now and put up my pictures.  Enjoy!

The show closes on October 14th, so if you’re in the area, it’s a must-see.
