Jon Neuse | Life, Broadly

Traffic Zone Gallery presents Jon Neuse: Life, Broadly. The exhibition features new oil stick drawings that explore contemporary relationships between men, women and children. For many years Neuse has explored intricate aspects of his personal and contemporary family life. From 2006 through 2010 he used the metaphor of the circus with multimedia images of his immediate and then young family. In this exhibition he presents a broader view of life rendered in simple line drawings. War, disease and cultural dysfunction are the subjects.
