 Andrea Maki: "In Wild Eyes" at Butters Gallery, April 7-30, www.buttersgallery.com.  "The installation has the Andrea Maki look of hardcore elegance and compounded content that makes each of us consider beauty and reality transformed to a new level of heightened awareness.  To see and experience Maki's latest efforts in spreading awareness is to face both the pathos and beauty of the wild mustang, an American icon, and our own history.  Each large scale image tells its' own story.  But many times their actual size, scale and detail conspire to engage and mesmerize, linking images to one another, and the lone stallion, at yet another scale.  Idea and content imbue this work with nuance, discovery and emotion."  - E.
