Fair Card Value
NEW WORKS BY MICHAEL CROSSETT
LONG VIEW GALLERY
May 31 – July 8, 2018
In Fair Card Value, Crossett’s unique process and distinct vision of life in Washington D.C. shine through. Referencing the now obsolete Metro fare card, many of the works are composed with layered imagery of DC landmarks behind the familiar magnetic stripe running the length of the right side of the artwork. Other pieces rely on the iconic, coffered architecture of the Metro tubes as a backdrop for other electric D.C. spots such as Black Cat, Howard Theater, Dacha and Dock Five. Metro cars themselves often shoot through the middle of his compositions, a nod to the past and also the speed in which this city is changing.
