Deductive Reasons
This exhibition will feature works created from 2012 to present, featuring Houzengas unique reverse glass painting process using stencils, razorblades, and masking. An array of figures from history and from found photographs are submitted to this deductive process and become part of the abstraction, mostly on found window panes. Shown together as a collection for the first time.
Houzenga's work has been featured in publications such as Time Out Chicago, Art and Art Galleries of the South, Art+Design New Orleans, as well as the Rizzoli book Stickers: From Punk Rock to Contemporary Art. In 2021 his work appeared on the cover of Primordial, a comic published by Image comics. In 2022 he was commissioned by Dark Horse Comics to create a cover for a Stranger Things comic book. He is the subject of the independent documentary film Brent Houzenga: Hybrid Pioneer.
