Rob Matthews, fresh from a whirlwind trip to Europe (read about it at Rob’s blog, Matthews the Younger), sent me a note about two New York shows with Philly ties that open this weekend. They both sound outstanding!
The Lizard Cult at Clementine Gallery
June 2-Aug. 10.
Robyn O’Neill who’s been blog-tending at Matthews the Younger while Rob and his wife, Tracy, went to Europe, is in this group show which honors a long-time and influential art teacher, Lee Baxter Davis.
