Press Release
Pop Gun is pleased to announce MINIOTICS, an upcoming off-site exhibition at Weatherproof, opening March 13.
MINIOTICS presents a synaptic mapping of Pop Gun’s art-world; Nodes of international artists are connected in a schematic display of social and institutional vectors, advancing the discourse of Network Painting, and rendering physical the resinous scaffolds of social labor.
On the surface, the exhibition will appear as 130+ MINIONS, ranging from literal yellow henchmen from the ‘Despicable Me’ franchise, to conceptual gestures. Artists from New York City to Chicago, to San Francisco, Providence, Guadalajara, Melbourne, Bogotá, Stockholm and more, speak to common experience in minionese, contextualizing the “banana” babblings of scene discourse within an absurdist world-wide scheme.
