Sunset Motel exhibit opens at Push Gallery, June 24

PRESS RELEASE FROM PUSH GALLERY:

Reception June, 24 6-10pm
Push Gallery, Asheville
Brock Forrer & Ally Alsup

“Sunset Motel” marks the 3rd exhibition by artist couple and collaborators, Brock Forrer and Ally Alsup. Since moving to North Carolina from Alaska a year ago, Alsup and Forrer have changed their medium and direction from printmaking and sculpture, to large scale acrylic paintings. Their imagery is a combination of graphic portraiture, architecture, and vintage ephemera. With no obvious concepts being drawn on, the duo relies on the narrative between their work and imagery to convey meaning and intention. Overall, “Sunset Motel” is the artists’ everyday depiction of what it has meant to leave home and start over in a completely new place.
