Something there will be the worst thing yet. such simple sadness. gorgeous work. i appreciate the narrative whole of the entire collection, the silent story told by each character’s (missing family members?) morose disposition, the nostalgic color pallete of rust, grass, grandma’s upholstry.

It has been exciting to be involved in the process of 'unveiling' Wolfgang to the world - I look forward to his next body of work and to following the long and illustrious career ahead of this very talented artist.

My favorite piece is the one of the girl sitting in the green chair in the front room against the back wall (of Found Gallery). I think overall the pieces work well together and draw upon the same mood. I think the one has to be open minded when viewing the show and it is worthwhile to have a conversation with Wolfgang about his ideas. GO SEE THE SHOW!

The scale is pretty indescribable - you have to see it in person to really appreciate it. And I think his paintings really incite thought and contemplation on behalf of the audience, as opposed to some art I've seen that intends purely to shock or "be pretty."
