Gargoyle: The Sacred and The Profane, Drawings by Matthew Kubik
Gallery Q
100 College Ave., #100
Jul 5, 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

An internationally-trained architect, award-winning designer, educator, and artist, Matthew Kubik has spent a lifetime exploring the great city of Rome, Italy. Inspired by the city’s rich Renaissance and Gothic art, his Gargoyles are a contemporary exploration of the Renaissance artists’ study of the male human form and the dark mystical mind of the Medieval Age in which the gargoyle represents human carnal urges we struggle to control. Kubik says, “This series of drawings explores the opposites of human nature and the conflict between the sacred and the profane. The images are meant to be humorous, disturbing, erotic, and thought-provoking as we ponder our own inner challenges.”
