In the current exhibition at Buffalo Arts Studio, artists Josef Bajus and Kurt Treeby have both introduced unexpected bodies of work. While neither artist has changed their general disposition or take on the world, each has further revealed exactly what makes them tick to their audience.

“Paintings of Pictures of People with Paintings” is the title of Bruce Adams’ exhibit currently being shown at Insite Gallery. The paintings tell the story of viewing art in white box museum spaces. As you walk into the space, the painting to the left of the door comically looks like a couple of young people sitting on a sofa watching TV. The couple is holding museum tour wands up to their ears—the kind provided by most museums these days—and both have the kind of dumbed-out expression one gets when watching TV. This is not what you’d expect to see in an art gallery.
