Giant Robot is proud to present Class Action, paintings and sculpture by Philadelphia-based artist William Buzzell.
Working almost entirely with found wood or metal and common latex house paint, Buzzell’s pieces are characterized by a surface of intricate brushwork and often feature three-dimensional elements. William Buzzell dips into the mundane, the practical world and a deep well of popular culture, often using maps, logos, charts, text, and familiar cartoon characters or TV icons to fill every inch of his paintings. A native of Providence, RI, much of Buzzell’s early work was installed on the streets of his hometown and New York under the alias Rotgut.
Buzzell is a current member of the Artist Studio/Gallery Space 1026 in Philadelphia. The artist has had major exhibitions in Los Angeles, San Jose, Sweden, and Canada. We are very pleased to offer his first solo show in New York.
A reception for William Buzzell will be held from 6:30 to 10:00 on Saturday, February 16. For more information about the artist, GRNY, or Giant Robot magazine, please contact GRNY.

Message to the Mayor
Mayor Nutter has not yet acted on his campaign promise to reinstate the Office of Arts & Culture.
With the city budget deadline rapidly approaching, Space 1026 is working with Roberta Fallon and Libby Rosof of Artblog to make the face of the “arts” constituency somehow more real than it seems when people talk about artists and the arts.
1. Take a photo of yourself in your environment.
2. Email your 375 x 281 pixel photo to libbyandroberta@gmail.com with your name and the location of the picture.
3. Please inform other artists via email, phone or handshake.
