SLAP SALT LAKE

Brent Godfrey abstracts radically and landscapes in surprisingly interesting ways, but we like it most when he’s fucking with people’s faces.

His next show opens at A Gallery on March 17. 

Via A Gallery: Brent Godfrey uses the painting process to translate objects, figures and landscapes into physical metaphor. Combining varying degrees of abstraction and representation, he explores identity and memory, interpersonal relationships and social conventions. Raised in Utah, Godfrey graduated, cum laude, with a bachelor of arts before completing a master's degree and expanding his painting studies in Italy. He has been featured in museum and gallery exhibitions internationally and mounted significant solo shows. His paintings have garnered awards and have been published broadly.
