"Postcards of now." That's how Marc Seguin, a Canadian artist who's currently showing at Mike Weiss Gallery, describes his charcoal and oil work. He's got a wily, wry sense of humor tackling subjects as broad as art and as narrow as controversial billionaire Roman Abromovich. The Ontario-born artist has titled the collected works My Century (An Illustrated Guide for Aliens), tongue-in-cheek for certain but also indicative of his type of social critique. Each and every piece arrests motion and prompts delightful response.
Seguin's work is up through October 13, 2012.
Mike Weiss Gallery, 520 West 24th Street, New York, NY
