US FUTURE STATES: AN ATLAS OF GLOBAL IMPERIALISM
SHERRY FRUMKIN GALLERY is pleased to present US FUTURE STATES: AN ATLAS OF GLOBAL IMPERIALISM, a solo exhibition of works by artist Dan Mills opening September 12, 2009 with a reception for the artist from 6 – 9 pm. The exhibition continues through November 7, 2009.
Us Future States began as a visual/text exercise in early March 2003 between the US war with Afghanistan and the beginning of the invasion of Iraq. In this bitingly satirical series of works on paper Mills discovered “that by conceptually pushing this global stance a little further, it was possible to justify taking over almost any country.” So he did.
In these 35 works, the US of America (USA) expands with the US Global (USG) and morphs into US Empire (USE).
The exhibition is in conjunction with the release of the AMERICAN EDITION of US Future States ATLAS published by Perceval Press. The artist will be present at the opening and will sign copies of the book.
