Overview

Merry Karnowsky Gallery is known for exhibiting particularly acidic and dark humored contemporary art. The artists here range in age, but most prefer a twisted take on the reality surrounding them. Past shows, which have focused on either a theme or a single artist, have included pieces by Sandow Birk, Erik Brunetti, Frank Kozik and Kathy Schorr. Housed above the Jan Baum gallery, this space forms a unit of five galleries in the Art: 170 buildings. A recent exhibit displayed the art of Becca, an artist who has spread her "tagged" images throughout the city streets as well as on gallery walls. Admission is Free.
