"ELEVATED" reviewed in Big Red & Shiny

“In fact, the space at Gallery VERY and the works by this group of artists illustrate the principle of quantum entanglements […] In a quantum entanglement, the parts of a system—no matter how far away they are from each other in the universe—are intrinsically linked, sharing observable physical properties. Just so, the works of Corby, Gallagher, Riley, and Weathersby are energized by and in dialogue with each other.”

Tory Fair interviewed in Big Red and Shiny

“[Fair] had cast a tree in a mixture of rubber, plaster, clay, wax, and foam and they stood erect in the middle of the studio. On our next visit, the trees were lying on the ground, a cast of a tree stump had been added, and we all agreed that the campfire motif provided a strong sense of place and a conceptual anchor for the show.”

Arthur Henderson: Sex not Sex

“The sculptures in VERY’s inaugural show, Sex Not Sex, inhabit the space in much the same way as the patrons at the opening: some sitting, some standing, others propped against the wall. In a gallery that feels more like a family room than a white cube, the work of Arthur Henderson does not simply provoke discussion but quietly joins the conversation.”
