Alex Pardee “Vertigo: A Decade of Hunting Nightmares” At Corey Helford Gallery
Corey Helford Gallery is kicking off what appears to be another big year for the Culver City art space with “Vertigo: A Decade of Hunting Nightmares,” Alex Pardee’s first solo exhibition for the gallery and his most ambitious work to date. The show opens up on January 8th, and features Pardee coming off his work on “Sucker Punch” to unveil the art of capturing nightmares with a collection of thirteen acrylic-on-cradled wood panel paintings, which are physical representations of darkly intense dream-state visions in the unique Pardee style. Each painting is accompanied by a framed document chronicling the nightmare’s history, as related by world-famous nightmare hunter, Verti Parker, who inspired Pardee to create the exhibition.
