Jamisen Ogg Deconstructs Kitsch for Sawbuck

Sawbuck art gallery, located in Seattle, Washington, will host a one-night exhibition of new work by Jamisen Ogg this Saturday. Ogg‘s work sculpts the mundane kitsch of middle class existence into high-concept oddities, often extending images into the third dimension.

The show, entitled (I can’t get no) SOPHISTICATION, will consist of the artist’s drawings, sculptures, and installed objects. In the past, Ogg has included site-specific canvases in several of his shows, often snaking canvases along the more interesting angles of a gallery’s interior.

During the opening, hand-printed posters of Ogg‘s work will be available along with “Adverse Possession,” an essay by fellow School of the Art Institute alumnus Anna Mayer. The opening, which doubles as a reception for the artist, takes place August 25 from 5-8 pm.
