Simultaneously preparing for two different art shows can’t be easy, but that’s what artist Joseph Findeiss did to get ready for the openings of Repetitious and Repro Redux, both of which feature different art in entirely different mediums.
Repetitious will include Findeiss’s three-dimensional assemblage woodwork and art. These handcrafted works look like something pulled from a quaint museum in the mountains, then updated with modern ideals and a little flair. Repro Redux, on the other hand, is an all-new collection of spray paint-on-wood reimagining’s of classic ephemera. “It’s about taking vintage posters or logos or whatever, using parts of it and adding new ones, but always adding my own style,” says Findeiss. The reimagined posters will range in subject matter from book covers to Communist propaganda posters, but each will be blown up and painted onto five-foot-long sheets of wood.
Repro Redux opens at Sputnik, 3 South Broadway, tonight at 8 p.m. and runs through July 31. Repetitious opens just down the street, at Ironwood Collection, 14 South Broadway, at 7 p.m. and runs through August 31 (an official opening reception is slated for August 5).
