Preview: Julian Callos’s “Cosmos” at WWA Gallery

For his new body of work for his solo show, "Cosmos," coming up at WWA Gallery in Culver City, Julian Callos delved into primordial themes. Set at the dawn of creation, the paintings recall the tumultuous myths of Ancient Greek gods that preceded the Olympians, the Titans, with their personification of the forces of the universe. Callos says he explores the origin of the universe in his work as a metaphor for the formation of one's personal identity. "Cosmos" opens October 12 and in the project room of WWA, there will be a group show, "Time Will Tell," curated by Callos with work from the likes of Michael Ramstead, Jon MacNair, Ken Garduno (featured in our current issue), Casey Weldon and others. Take a look at our preview of the show after the jump.
