An exhibition of work by Brian Willmont, an artist based in Brooklyn, N.Y., opens in the Albany Museum of Art’s West Gallery on July 9, 2020. The show continues through Oct 24, 2020.
AMA Guest Curator Didi Dunphy says Willmont investigates beauty with slick and precise directness, creating a hyper-real depiction of patterned decoration. Using the technique of air brushing, his wall paper and paintings are lush and handmade, she said.

He has had solo exhibitions at Victori + Mo (New York City), Guerrero Gallery (San Fransico, Calif.), Driscoll Babcock (New York City), Field Projects (New York City), LaMontagne Gallery (Boston, Mass.) and others.
