1,498 Views - Click for Gallery Jeff Sonhouse’s upcoming exhibit at the Tilton Gallery is called ‘Pawnography’; somewhat appropriately, it explores the changing role of the black male in society through mixed-media paintings and drawings. Each portrait in Jeff Sonhouse’s ‘Pawnography’ depicts a black male in drastically different settings. There is the black politician, the brand-obsessed individual, the pimp, and the paisley and platinum-obsessed young adult. Jeff Sonhouse’s ‘Pawnography’ will be displayed at the Tilton Gallery through December 23. As the exhibition title suggests, both we and the subjects in Sonhouse's paintings are instruments in a game we may never fully comprehend. (coolhunting) Source: jacktiltongallery   Via: coolhunting
