MISSPELLED

An Alphabet by Victor Reyes

July 7 – August 14, 2010

July 7, 2010 - August 14, 2010
Reception: Wednesday, July 7, 2010, 6 – 9 pm

ROBERT BERMAN GALLERY / E6
1632 Market Street, San Francisco, CA 94102

Robert Berman / E6 Gallery is pleased to present MISSPELLED, an alphabet by Victor Reyes, handmade in California. The ambitious public art installation turned gallery exhibition explores the artists’ unique approach to graffiti, by dissecting individual letters and exploring the anatomy and architecture found in the symbols we use to communicate. Inspired by San Francisco’s streets, surfaces, and overall visual vibrancy, Reyes reinterprets the letters and presents them to us in a brilliant array of color and movement. These alphabets, recontextualized on various abandoned surfaces around the city, are not intended to provide answers, but to raise questions about how we interpret public spaces and the content assumed within.
