Main Art Gallery: Upstairs
Like Main Art Framing, Main Art Gallery is located on the second floor of Main Art Supply. Our curatorial staff presents both established and up-and-coming artists from the Richmond region and the Southeast—artists working in a wide variety of mediums, from painting and sculpture to photography and installation. Every month we showcase a new artist or group of artist at an opening that coincides with other gallery openings in the city, the ever-popular First Friday series. Please join us on the first Friday of every month for an opening reception (hors d'oeuvres courtesy of Baja Bean Company) from 7 to 9 pm.

ABOUT THE ARTIST
Ryan Boatright is a Paris-based artist and digital printmaker who develops his work through conceptual processes that utilize advanced photographic and digital systems in a metaphorical manner. Raised very conventionally, in the American Suburbs, and then later migrated to France, he is naturally attracted to photographs that critique notions of home, its broader environment, and the familial dynamics that they influence.
In this exhibition he explores and compares certain identities of domestic space by studying color data from images and prints made by 6 individuals (immediate family) in 3 spaces. The installation consists of a series of custom prints that depict color swapped realities of common living spaces and their objects.
