Don't be deceived by the name, the anti-gallery Get Real Art actually
does have real art and it's hanging in the basement. The current gem-of-a-show
in the Project Room downstairs features Nick Weber, a local artist trained
on both coasts. This is Weber's first solo show in New York, and it is
worth catching before it closes this week. Weber carves figures out of
blackness, illuminating his nocturnal narratives with night lights - a
solitary car bathed in lamp light, a shadowy figure of a girl lit by her
cigarette and a couple exposed by a bed-side lamp, to name just a few.
Weber's most obvious influences include Rembrandt and Munch and there
may even be a California abstract expressionist in him somewhere. It seems
a natural and logical reference as he studied with Nathan Oliveira and
is familiar with the work of other California painters like Richard Diebenkorn
and David Park. All in all, this intimate show is a rare find.

In this exhibition, the second solo show by painter Nick Weber, Weber
displays his mastery of light, color and texture in single portraits and
group scenes.Painting in oil on canvas, he captures subtle gradations
of light and skillfully renders his figures in a manner that seems nonchalant
and uncalculated. Weber's work is also full of subtext, exploring issues
dealing with class, sexual politics and the fragility of male self-esteem.
Clearly influenced by Rembrandt and Munch, Weber's art is a welcome sight
in today's art scene. Give yourself a present and check out this show
before it closes. (MB)
