Fort Works Art will present 9 Grams, an international group exhibition of contemporary works. The exhibition will coincide with artist Dan Lam’s solo exhibition, Coquette. This dynamic show is comprised of artists whose works are connected via their strong use of color and abstract nature.

The title, 9 Grams, entertains the idea that today’s artistic, visual vocabulary is highly influenced by social media, namely Instagram. The narrative of this show draws on the artists’ shared similarity of visual language along with the connection of their work with Lam’s solo exhibition. The contrasts of geometric abstractions and strong lines with figurative drawings and free movement paintings develop a controlled chaos in 9 Grams. This international roster of all-male artists will bring a surge of vitality to Fort Worth’s art scene, making this a show you will not want to miss.

Artists include Lee Hill, hoxxoh, Eric Inkala, Erik Jones, Locastro, Derick Smith, Nick Wilkinson, Ben Willis, and Wheron.

There will be an opening reception on Friday, August 6 from 6-11 pm.
