Fred Stonehouse at Tory Folliard

Check out Mary Louise Schumacher's review of the return of Fred Stonehouse to Milwaukee.

Although our work doesn't aesthetically resemble each other's at all, I find it interesting that we seem to both find symbolism and historical reference very important to our work. I can't exactly speak to why Stonehouse uses it thoroughly, but for me it creates a link that the viewer can grab onto. Something that their interest can build from and begin the investigation. However, as Schumacher points out about Stonehouses work...

The pondering might be fascinating, but you’ll never arrive at a definitive answer.

...we both use our work to create an open discussion. Something that will almost never end in a concrete definition, but will constantly change and meander as different people connect to different aspects, as different details latch on to our eccentricities...

Very good review and very promising show. Can't wait to make a trip down to the gallery...
