Tripping
We are temporarily OPEN BY APPOINTMENT ONLY. We will let you know when regular hours are resumed. Call 212.358-0028 or 212.777-7922 to make one. The Phatory is pleased present to an installation of paintings Robert Fox: January 17 - March 1. An opening reception will be held on Thursday, January 17, from 7 – 9:00 P.M. Robert Fox’s exhibition "Tripping" presents pictographic narratives of
life in the Alaskan wilderness. Rendered on found plywood with car enamel retrieved from
local dumpsters Fox’s illustrations of forsaken hippie compounds and other structures
of questionable purpose entertain reasons to explain their existence. Behind the unforgiving
coldness and its hallucinatory effects portrayed by Fox are suggestions that there is
something about such extraordinary places that elicit an addicting foolhardiness.
Fox is a self-taught artist of Fairbanks where he is an established participant of that
city’s art scene and is a keen observer of the lifestyles and coping mechanisms of both
seasoned survivor and newly arrived inhabitant.
