"Top Five Buddy Cop Films", an exhibition of collaborations between five pairs of Los Angeles-based artists, curated by Santi Vernetti. The exhibition features works by Amanda Ross Ho & Diedrick Brackens, Larry Johnson & Adam Stamp, Lisa Anne Auerbach & Joel Kyack, Kerry Tribe & Edgar Bryan, Lila de Magalhaes & Roni Shneior.Through her surreal, boldly colored rendering of the human form on non-traditional surfaces (velvet, crushed velvet, and vinyl), Hirsch minimizes the erotic appeal of the subjects in order to elicit alternative reactions.Her work centers around a character she calls Poor Gray, an aimless, wealthy, anxious man. Milbrath explores themes of gender, challenging traditional concepts of masculinity by depicting Gray as vulnerable, effeminate, and idle.
