Rosson Crow’s ‘Salon de Réception avec Bud Light’ via Galerie Obadia
Galerie Obadia presents Rosson Crow’s second exhibition in Paris with a series of paintings entitled ‘Paris, Texas’ featuring Crow’s signature blending of Americana, pop culture, and classical painting. Crow’s paint-splotched scenes typically represent opulent places that symbolize power, particularly those associated with ideals of Texas, such as oil derricks or nouveau riche interiors. The current exhibition mines the interiors spaces of Paris, including Versailles, the traditional salon, and the Parisian cafe. Those scenes are infused references to Jeff Koons, Michael Jackson, and good old-fashioned American tropes of the star spangled banner and Bud Light.
