(By Travis Jensen)

Local artist Andrew Schoultz has been busy gearing up for a big show entitled “In Gods We Trust” that opens Sep. 4 at the Marx Zavattero Gallery in SF, near Union Square.

From the press release:

"In Gods We Trust," Andrew Schoultz’s first solo exhibition at Marx & Zavattero in San Francisco, will be a tour de force encompassing an expansive group of two- and three-dimensional works. Against the backdrop of Schoultz’s densely painted mixed media paintings on panel and paper will be large-scale painted sculptures — including scales of justice, splintered telephone poles, and debris of broken bridges — installed throughout the gallery. Schoultz will create a frenzied walk-through experience, placing the viewer inside the work virtually as a participant, and translate his ideas into a theater of chaos that speaks to the multifarious global issues that plague the world today.

"In Gods We Trust" opens on Thu., Sep. 4, 5:30p.m.-7:30p.m. Show runs all the way through Oct. 25. Marx Zavattero, 77 Geary Street (between Grant and Kearny streets), S.F. For info: (415)627-9111, or www.marxzav.com.

Schoultz is also showing at the Roberts & Tilton Gallery’s inaugural group exhibition show, “Macrocosm,” which opens in L.A. on Sat., Sep. 6, two days after the “In Gods We Trust” show opening. Other artists exhibiting in the Macrocosm show include Barry McGee, Ed Templeton, Jimmy Baker, Delphine Courtillot, Noah Davis, Jeremy Everett, Eberhard Havekost, Adam Janes, Titus Kaphar and Thomas Kiesewetter, among other notables.

See you at the opening!
