Rosson Crow is a bright, brash, bold young painter from L.A. via Dallas,
Texas. Her super-scale history paintings superimpose theatrical tableau from
suggestively paired periods: whether the garden of Versailles, a Vegas
Casino, a Jason Rhodes neon installation, a honky tonk bar, an equestrian
dressage field or Abraham Lincoln’s funeral procession, her clever parings
have a hallucinatory relationship to their sources and deal in design and
power. Rendered in glowing layers of oil paints and washes, her theatrical
confabulations collapse centuries and synthesize styles to reveal the
multiply haunted nature of interior space and the affinities that align
across time. Though critically sophisticated, Rosson will tell you her
paintings are also BIG and FUN, two things she is not embarrassed to
celebrate.
