Oliver Cole Gallery is pleased to present "Racketeer", a solo show by Dan Alva.
In "Racketeer," Dan Alva employs his signature blend of classical oil painting techniques with modern intrusions like camouflage and bold patterns, often infusing his works with a subtle, yet pervasive, sense of illicit influence or control. Through these transformed narratives, Alva invites us to consider the hidden hands and unspoken rules that govern our world, prompting a re-evaluation of what is truly seen versus what is concealed, and who ultimately holds the power in the visual landscape.
