Press release
Baldwin Gallery is proud to announce its third show with Austin Eddy, Ooples And Banoonoos, featuring multimedia works by the artist.
Austin Eddy’s sculptures and paintings explore aspects of the human condition and serve as a metaphor for the human experience, including fragility and death. Sculptures ranging from birds to fish explore evolution. Central to these works is the duality of life and the appreciation of living, noting the progression of being born, growing, and then withering. With his paintings, using abstraction though minor alterations, the concept of the idea of change engages the viewer. It highlights that if one such thing changes in the mind’s eye it also changes your perspective.
Austin Eddy (b. 1986, Boston, MA) earned his BFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. He has been exhibited nationally and internationally including at Livie Fine Art, Zurich, CH; Berggruen Gallery, San Francisco, CA; Académie Conti, Consortium, Dijon, FR; Galerie Knust Kunz, Munich, DE; Half Gallery, New York, NY; SoCo Gallery, Charlotte, NC; The University of Kentucky Hospital, Lexington, KY; The Horticultural Society of New York, NY; The Pit, Los Angeles, CA; Galleri Thomassen, Gothenburg, SE; The De La Cruz Collection, Miami, FL; The Urban Institute of Contemporary Art, Grand Rapids, MI; The Museum of Contemporary Art Detroit, MI; The New Hampshire Institute of Art, Manchester, NH; and the Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia, Atlanta, GA, among others.
