Los Angeles, CA, Depart Foundation, Kour Pour Samsara, January 30, 2015 - March 7, 2015
Kour Pour (born 1987 in Exeter, England) is a Los Angeles based British-Persian artist, who creates large, intricate paintings of Persian carpets depicting images such as Silk Road merchants, Chinese dragons, and Victorian wallpaper patterns. Earning a BFA from Otis College of Art and Design in 2010, Pour made the first of his paintings of traditional carpets for his college graduation show. In just four short years, his first New York solo exhibition at the Untitled Gallery sold out a suite of seven intricately detailed eight-foot-tall canvases before the show even opened.
In 2015, the Depart Foundation in Los Angeles held an exhibit of Kour Pour’s work – Kour Pour Samsara – and the art critic Nicola Ricciardi related Kour Pour’s work to some of the grand themes of Science Fiction – atemporality, circularity, and a non-linear narrative. He encourages the viewer to read Ballard’s Atrocity Exhibition, Dick’s Ubik, and Vonnegut’s Slaughterhouse Five as fundamentally echoing Pour’s creative process. Pour’s merging of past, present, and future in his final product is a performance of circularity in which he begins with modern image files found on the internet of ancient imagery – Chinese dragons, Roman soldiers, Ganesh, etc. – which he screens on his current material, composed in his own storyline, ie: re-contextualized. He then hand-paints over the screening, sand-blasts them to prematurely age them, and re-paints them again, a circular process in which the final result is something that lives in all realms simultaneously.
Kour Pour’s works have been exhibited in New York City; Dublin, Ireland, and Los Angeles and he was the youngest artist featured in the 2014 Artists to Watch exhibition in Miami.

- GyreLocated in Detroit, MIGyre acrylic, spray paint on canvas 80" x 96" 2022 Part of the New Minority Series Dennis Jones was first introduced to the use of a bidet while being extremely ill in Hurghada, Egypt. He has played the game of ‘Jenga’ with prostitutes in Phuket, Thailand. Once he hiked down to the bottom of the Grand Canyon from the North Rim and back in twelve hours. Jones has also visited fifty US National Parks. The work of Dennis Jones is growth oriented. There is diversity among his oeuvre and much risk in such an approach. Eschewing a ‘signature style’ that he considers to be boring, creatively limiting and market driven, he prefers to consider how method and expression intermingle and form a conceptual basis. A cursory glance may consider his prodigious output to lack focus, but a deeper reading reveals that he remains true to himself and allows his work to take him where it needs to go. There has always been the presence of a figure in his work, either implied, or directly visible. One can trace several years of development from his interest in figurative and cartoon-like imagery in, Toyland (2006), through his foray into text based work (2007-13) and a later influence of abstraction (2012-18). Following this trajectory brings one to his current body of work that combines figuration, cartoons and abstraction. He is a visual artist, educator, and architect. Each of the ‘hats’ he wears directly influence his work. He states that ‘a fascination with an integration of material, process and expression, truth of emotion and visually communicating thought are what sustain and drive him as an artist. Jones has participated in over seventy solo and group shows that include local, national and international venues. His creative output includes paintings, sculptures, drawings, installations, videos, photos, books, teaching and residential architecture. Jones’ work was selected to be included in the New American Paintings 2019 Midwest Competition Publication, juried by Staci Boris, Associate Director of Exhibitions, School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Currently, his focus is on a growing body of paintings, in mixed media, on canvas that combine abstraction, figuration and cartoon imagery. Jones had a one person exhibition at the University of Michigan in September through December of 2018. A review of the show can be read on the page titled, Candyland Review. Earlier the same year, He curated an exhibition titled, SIX, that opened in January of 2018, at The Janice Charach Gallery; a five thousand square foot space, located in West Bloomfield, Michigan. The exhibition featured the work of six Detroit artists and provided adequate space for each to show a body of work…essentially six individual shows in one space. Selected venues that have shown Jones’ work include: The OK Harris Gallery, New York; Galerie Protege, NY; The Mary Washington Galleries, Mary Washington University, Fredericksburg, Maryland; The Kraft Lieberman Gallery, Chicago; The Drift Gallery, Portsmouth, NH; The Project Room, Lincoln, NE; The Art Gallery of Windsor, Windsor, Canada; Artcite, Windsor, CA; The Thames Gallery, Chatham, Ontario, Canada; The Kenderdine Art Gallery, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatchewan, CA; Definitely Superior Gallery, Thunder Bay, ON, CA; Gallery Lambton, Sarnia, ON, CA, WKP Kennedy, North Bay...Category
