From the archives of the Rodger LaPelle Galleries, Philadelphia, PA, Hoch LTD. presents Entirely Absurd: The Rodger LaPelle Galleries Collection II.
Rodger LaPelle and his wife Christine McGinnis first emerged on the Philadelphia art scene by establishing a fine art printing studio. Here, they employed local artists and recent PAFA and art school graduates, ultimately founding the Rodger LaPelle Galleries in 1980. Representing such artists as David Lynch, Peter Paone, Paul Wunderlich, and Tom Palmore, among many others, the gallery established a distinct presence in the Philadelphia artistic community by offering works characterized by an absurdist aesthetic, often vacillating between the darkly surreal and hilariously nonsensical. Such works transport their viewers to places unfamiliar, perhaps haunting, revealing the artists' strange and disturbing impulses.
In keeping with the unpredictable nature of the works themselves, this sale is presented without reserve.
