David Rathman: Against a Crooked Sky

David Rathman: Against a Crooked Sky at Larissa Goldston Gallery. "...In this exhibition, Rathman revisits the culture and mythology of the Old West and spaghetti westerns produced in the 1960s and 1970s. Populated by familiar characters - sheriffs, frontiersmen, villains, and the women who love them - the work imparts a longing for a world of absolutes. A world where, as Rathman puts it, 'bad guys get punished and dispatched, and resolution comes quick and hard.'"
