Art Show: Luke Chueh & Juan Muniz – The Primrose Path (Feb. 2 & Feb. 3)

There’s another great art show coming up, opening this Thursday & Friday with Luke Chueh and Juan Muniz. Here is some more information:

This Thursday (Feb 2nd) and Friday (Feb 3rd) we’ll be celebrating the opening of “The Primrose Path”, a two artist show featuring new works by my friend and colleague Juan Muniz and Myself. As the title implies, the new works revolve around our personal understanding and interpretation of “sin”. A theme truly befitting its host city: Las Vegas.
The opening will be spread across two days:
Thursday, (Feb 2nd) will be the “soft opening” or show preview.
Friday (Feb 3rd), is turning out to be quite a spectacle. With free prints, a pop-up shop from Vegas’ own Happy Panda Toys, food catered by Slidin’ Thru, and all this coupled with the madness that is Vegas’ First Friday’s.
Both Muniz and I will be in attendance for both nights.
This is one of my first big shows outside of California, so I hope all of you who might be from the area can make it out. I’m really happy with the way the 11 paintings I created for the show came out, and I hope all of you have an opportunity to come to see the work for yourselves.
