Christopher Rabb’s paintings represent slices of selected comic book compositions in their bare visual elements exposing the raw expressive power of the climax. Rabb’s source is comic books for their inherent expressive visual language. Comics are seemingly simple because they are comprised of three major elements: the image, text, and sequence. Rabb removes the characters and text, leaving activated space, visual movement, and visual time gaps between planes.

Stride hastily into the ground floor gallery of the Crow Collection of Asian Art and you may find yourself halting abruptly in utter awe. In this gallery hang huge canvases full of a frenzied mix of colorful and cotton eye-candy fun imagery. This is the work of Yang Jin Long. Slow your approach to take in Yang’s Untitled Series, a collection of contemporary Chinese works of art that is intensely enriched with a depth echoing the vibe of modern China.
