The two 3D printed nylon guns are vehicles of finding a new language between the 3D printing technique and traditional goldsmithing.<br /><br /><br /><br />The feminine firearms are retrofitted with hand-tooled 18-karat gold details and loaded with cosmetic ammo. There’s a lip gloss and wand in the muzzle, the loading chamber doubles as a pill compartment (complete with pills, including Viagra), 100 grams of certified silver bullion in the Dior gun clip, 50 grams of 24-karat gold in the Chanel, a toothpick and, in some models, a hairpin and a small vial of perfume. The guns also conceal a 4-gigabyte jump drive.<br /><br /><br /><br /><span style="font-weight: bold;">Dior 001</span><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi70z0oC_ies1wHKtkFYykPq5UUVcl2RhowgXY2pW_W1wOqB3q1Uietjg1_-xLzsV5AHmHe83qmk7f_eWah-UyOK4GHHJENfGjc5L4_4P9WgmJ8Op93Pz0KrXxd14QQqMFVo7RyzvbD0tJD/s1600/gun-1-kopie-A.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5644242842943611714" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi70z0oC_ies1wHKtkFYykPq5UUVcl2RhowgXY2pW_W1wOqB3q1Uietjg1_-xLzsV5AHmHe83qmk7f_eWah-UyOK4GHHJENfGjc5L4_4P9WgmJ8Op93Pz0KrXxd14QQqMFVo7RyzvbD0tJD/s400/gun-1-kopie-A.jpg" style="cursor: pointer;

Greene is known for his oil paintings celebrating color and texture created through a methodical and intuitive process of painterly construction, meticulous deconstruction and repositioning of oil-on-vellum strips.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCy_cx7jJKLWJQj31sTA-kcECo7fcNPTRfXq74Undfmby003zEb_KYwzgLONN3KmURcL6ttOW3d_u6uu5LLjcBTnYboiAchnEpLgyez-9XyOUaansCzLYWlPYvWhHEt9dvus1YBlwjM0of/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-04-30+at+12.17.41+PM.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601459581930833826" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCy_cx7jJKLWJQj31sTA-kcECo7fcNPTRfXq74Undfmby003zEb_KYwzgLONN3KmURcL6ttOW3d_u6uu5LLjcBTnYboiAchnEpLgyez-9XyOUaansCzLYWlPYvWhHEt9dvus1YBlwjM0of/s400/Screen+shot+2011-04-30+at+12.17.41+PM.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 255px; height: 378px;" /></a><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh44KNnISIk1C69y_JJQSOxLOaaLNZK8p4j_1phIw5H6N4Nx4ZBj95B2DpzlKaOGqu9ASeSkfSLcr5qP7M4BjdeUKZrsV-EMfzACcaWNlQMj14Wy799szsTkL9NmrCwRMgDGfzZjXeg_Col/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-04-30+at+12.17.49+PM.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601459398219148050" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh44KNnISIk1C69y_JJQSOxLOaaLNZK8p4j_1phIw5H6N4Nx4ZBj95B2DpzlKaOGqu9ASeSkfSLcr5qP7M4BjdeUKZrsV-EMfzACcaWNlQMj14Wy799szsTkL9NmrCwRMgDGfzZjXeg_Col/s400/Screen+shot+2011-04-30+at+12.17.49+PM.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 274px; height: 377px;" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEif3zyGdC3nTTm7AMZC96itNOHIrOZvLKtefvJ5hv4JT5rOqkYxp7r8GKKCs_j3rbsbSyqnANv_oP3yb53GmV4jRbDoi-kXjQ93jWGwEnDDsQPUvFTtIjd-DsA-ghY3BD3Q_FOLSnQqXwLJ/s1600/Screen+shot+2011-04-30+at+12.17.08+PM.png"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601460237973614178" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEif3zyGdC3nTTm7AMZC96itNOHIrOZvLKtefvJ5hv4JT5rOqkYxp7r8GKKCs_j3rbsbSyqnANv_oP3yb53GmV4jRbDoi-kXjQ93jWGwEnDDsQPUvFTtIjd-DsA-ghY3BD3Q_FOLSnQqXwLJ/s400/Screen+shot+2011-04-30+at+12.17.08+PM.png" style="cursor: pointer; width: 530px; height: 441px;" /></a><br /><br />The paintings are mounted on quarter-inch-thick aluminum panels and hang virtually flush with the wall, creating a sleek, distinctive, object-oriented style. The work conveys a modern, refined elegance through a unique surface balancing individual mark-making with systematic precision. Throughout the exhibit Greene refers to modernist painting traditions such as the stripe, the grid, the monochrome, all over composition, cut-ups and gesturalism.<br /><br />Brian:<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn7hWPpggQ-itvt9WIsztqA0msu8cpXpkCjGgSQsTXzP3pR5xUS-Ug6a-3ZiQZXCd6C2nJKkqpcXn85P1XUsrpaOFS77PwqzAEIxXmI25rGFJIfHcmOUDc4DmMcfUH2H12_rNOWKSzJcmC/s1600/brian.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601446807276430178" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgn7hWPpggQ-itvt9WIsztqA0msu8cpXpkCjGgSQsTXzP3pR5xUS-Ug6a-3ZiQZXCd6C2nJKkqpcXn85P1XUsrpaOFS77PwqzAEIxXmI25rGFJIfHcmOUDc4DmMcfUH2H12_rNOWKSzJcmC/s400/brian.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 530px; height: 397px;" /></a><br />Brian in situ:<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzUPpM3HvdDPfbMyMSnsUbQUjw-aex4ebkHEln7yMUK-0yC1wAxmyMm_WmTxWbzTY9FGD_AmWgm8Fz6z0DtyirOsg84tWsHA6P1MK52vfI-fcKF-3UyT5_xOBfWJnH2kdbYmT6bs7Hz2si/s1600/brian_full.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601446734731703154" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgzUPpM3HvdDPfbMyMSnsUbQUjw-aex4ebkHEln7yMUK-0yC1wAxmyMm_WmTxWbzTY9FGD_AmWgm8Fz6z0DtyirOsg84tWsHA6P1MK52vfI-fcKF-3UyT5_xOBfWJnH2kdbYmT6bs7Hz2si/s400/brian_full.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 527px; height: 362px;" /></a><br /><br />Each of the gallery's five rooms will contain multiple works allowing Greene to explore dynamic color relationships between the paintings. Each abstraction is titled after a person or reminiscence, alluding to portraiture and intimacy through formal means. James, a work consisting of three seven foot wide panels of white, textured, finely cut and reassembled strips of paint, is titled after the artist's brother. Bobby, the artist's childhood nickname, is a bright, warm, gold and white painting of thinly cut horizontal strips inspired by Greene's memory of his grandfather and father's jewelry business.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMDL4uyrXhxUtJwDSaHJTt_1BJViYriWv-2q0R5zjLwXnKEpYkoBHLPcuP1VRWHCDNEcPf8iI8J5ads_EOZFocNCREWEIPYuM9xZgocjLgXfG4Sqo_80Ql1yEds1I9JxvN7pi0uB67KdHJ/s1600/Bobby+detail.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601466951663155602" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjMDL4uyrXhxUtJwDSaHJTt_1BJViYriWv-2q0R5zjLwXnKEpYkoBHLPcuP1VRWHCDNEcPf8iI8J5ads_EOZFocNCREWEIPYuM9xZgocjLgXfG4Sqo_80Ql1yEds1I9JxvN7pi0uB67KdHJ/s400/Bobby+detail.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; width: 525px; height: 405px;" /></a><br /><br />Other works in the show explode with color, vibrancy and have sensuous, tactile surfaces. In one of these, Giancarlo, Greene pays homage to the spirit of 1960s Italy with broad colorful stripes under thick strokes of white.<br /><br />Maurice, 2010:<br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWcRQ-Jv-4BcMuueKlje53euLZ0xoUCFy9hGXZ3TnIT1Qi7Rcj00tVKduuj-BHodIPgqNQuyK3qdDz8jATHINaxPdTx5u-Pov7kzeDFi4_g4v77UDSUUx7QxMnq0UH-MNJQJEiiffLL1vo/s1600/Maurice.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5601449280583724482" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWcRQ-Jv-4BcMuueKlje53euLZ0xoUCFy9hGXZ3TnIT1Qi7Rcj00tVKduuj-BHodIPgqNQuyK3qdDz8jATHINaxPdTx5u-Pov7kzeDFi4_g4v77UDSUUx7QxMnq0UH-MNJQJEiiffLL1vo/s400/Maurice.jpg" style="cursor: pointer;
