“What is Wet on Wet?

There’s been a bunch of cultural changes happening not just here in Vegas, but in the world over. It seems that painting has become a kind of “meming of yesterday’s art”, in a good way, teasing one to follow new developments, reinventions, hinting at the evolutional direction of the tradition, yet at the same time attempting to break away from absolute boredom. 

Together with the folks of the ASAP gallery, my friends and I present to you the playful side of our studio work, the process of “feeling” for what lies ahead — the attempt to grab that fleeting  “thing” right before it turns into just another idea. Those “in the know” get to follow and appreciate what it’s like early in the game.” - Gig Depio

WET ON WET is the first in a series of ASAP exhibitions at Couch in the Desert. Visit Available Space Art Projects’ website and Instagram for more information about gallery hours and their full exhibition schedule.
