Kirk Hopper Fine Art will present Brian Finke: "American Pictures." Spanning over two decades of sharp, high-contrast color photographs that straddle the documentary, editorial and art worlds, the KHFA gathering of some 60 images is the Brooklyn-based artist’s first major exhibition in Dallas.

Finke shuffles visual stimuli, bouncing us between genres, eras and moods. Blending raw naturalism with hyper-reality, his lurid and transgressive images send up all the red flags. One will do a double take, unsure of the narrative they just saw. Finke’s grasp of the fetishistic, of cloaked emotions and stalled dreams is so convincing that one can’t help but feel party to things they weren’t meant to see.

Following the opening reception, the exhibit will be on display through March 26.
