Sherry Leedy Contemporary Art: Soft Bones by Marcus Cain

Former Review magazine editor Marcus Cain, a painter and the winner of the 2006 Pitch Best of Kansas City award for Best Solo Show, opens Soft Bones, an exhibit of new paintings at Sherry Leedy Contemporary Art (2004 Baltimore, 816-221-2626). The show’s title refers to the seeming malleability of Cain’s subjects, evoked from a process of successive layers of paint allowed to drip and dry. The resulting pieces are fluid, largely unconstructed abstractions. Cain’s muted and earthy color palette advances the organic texture of the exhibit.

Tuesdays-Saturdays, 11 a.m.-5 p.m. Starts: July 3. Continues through Aug. 15, 2009
