YOU LOOK BETTER WITH THE LIGHTS ON!
First Thursday at Galerie Salome with the "Lite Brite Art" of Robert Khasho
and ten o'clock musical performance of Nancy Reagan
7pm-11pm Gallery 101 on NW 6th between NW Everett and NW Flanders (Everett Station Galleries) Thursday May 6th!
Robert Khasho, 22, is a young Portland native mixed media artist. Mainly using a combination of lite brites and construction paper as his medium, Robert preserves pop images in intricately cut and illuminated works that showcase the humanist qualities of superhuman iconography. Heavily influenced by the culture and imagery of the late 60’s and early 70’s, his work brings a sense of nostalgia to it that transcends kitsch and supercedes the boundaries between art and memory.
Robert Khasho graduated honorary art student of Jefferson High School in 2006. He is also a recipient of the Multnomah County Scholastic Art Award. He has recently been featured in shows at Worksound Gallery and East End.
