Exhibitions – Cufflink Art

Adam Fung | possible magic

March 19, 2022 – May 21, 2022

Adam Fung’s possible magic examines how we navigate trajectory within the Anthropocene’s precarious states. Primarily using painting as means to survey the condition of the planet, Adam Fung considers a range of research interests that touch upon issues such as eco-anxiety, climate change, the history of landscape imagery, and interconnected systems also known as hyperobjects.

Intentionally working with oil paint, these slow moving, layered surfaces are a resistance to the slickness, speed, and expectations of the digital world or media we encounter daily. Each work employs a dynamic color palette that speaks to the dichotomy of beauty and destruction in contemporary landscapes. With each encounter we must ask ourselves: what lies over the seen and unseen horizon?

The gallery is located in the Near Southside neighborhood of Fort Worth which has recently been designated as a state cultural district. The Near Southside is home to a multitude of arts, entertainment and creative organizations and continues to foster building a creative and supportive community.

Best Laid Plans

November 13, 2020 – January 13, 2021

The Best Laid Plans series is made from plans, schematics, blueprints, sketches, and scribbled dreams. Often utilized for buildings, sometimes for cities, while others are created for monuments, industrial works, ships—whatever man can envision.

The idea behind all this is that, despite many plans and ideas, things can still go wrong and things may change. Buildings may crumble, kings may have whims, wars may happen, chaos and accidents can occur. Sometimes all at once. Life.

Along with the actual buildings, the plans themselves may crumble, fade, get folded, be shoved in drawers, be forgotten, stained or torn.

Like the resulting structures and events, the plans themselves are sometimes sweetly naive. Other times, they stand against time and endure. Just as often, the passage of time imparts its own influence and aura—improving on, elevating and validating the plans.

Layered like dust, sediment and additions to what others have made over time, Best Laid Plans provides a re-imagination of how we can experience both time, and ideas behind parts of the physical world we impose our will upon.

What's in a name

September 9, 2020 – October 31, 2020

Cufflink’s inaugural group exhibition includes works by Marshall K. Harris, Linda Shobe, Ross Bonfanti, and Scott Anderson. What’s in a Name focuses on the pragmatic and complex process of perceptions, contextualizations and feelings associated with pairing names to their visual hosts. The exhibition, in addition, raises the question behind the origins of the gallery’s name.
