This Friday, the artist will hang his own acrylic paintings at the
A.E. England Galleryin an exhibition called "
Heart Felt Rhymes." Inspired by Phoenix culture, Sentrock says he combines poetry with dark lines, bold colors, and images of people, animals, and abstractions.
Michael Soto of AZ Citizens for the arts writes, "Joseph's work, whether in murals or canvas, shines. His work is real, it is the story of neighborhoods, Phoenix, himself. His use of color is new like the city, unique and alive. His play on words that he commonly uses in his work, give a narrative to the paintings, small clues to the stories he is telling with a brush."
You can see Perez's visions of community and culture in Phoenix starting with the "Heart Felt Rhymes" opening reception at 6 p.m. this Friday. The exhibition will be on display until September 30, with a closing reception from 6 to 9 p.m. on Friday, September 16. Perez says he'll be attending the closing reception, and will be available to answer questions and talk about his work.
