liz craft’s surreal world

May 20, 2008 4:55 pm

Lizcraft

Liz Craft’s art has a wacky, trippy, sixties vibe that evokes Grateful Dead covers, Krazy Kat, and R. Crumb’s wise old Mr. Natural. The L.A.-born, -educated, and -based sculptor’s work includes bronze cactus plants sitting in supermarket carts, a dilapidated sofa occupied by a band of birds, and a piece descriptively titled “Poop With Flies.” Craft brings her mischievous fun to Santa Monica’s Patrick Painter Inc. gallery, in a show that purports to “toy with themes of life, growth, and death through the artist’s radical sense of humor and exquisite craftsmanship.” But big metaphysical issues aside, Craft’s wily wit is compelling enough in its own surreal way.
