Despite the current and largely trumped-up backlash against small, exquisitely made drawings, David Dupuis continues to develop as one of the moment's leading Surrealist-Symbolists. His concentrated visionary landscapes combine gnarled graphite shapes and incidents done in vivid colored pencil (mostly blue) with surgically imposed collage, mostly of levitating eyes.

Jessica Jackson Hutchins' Stylite Optimism is not an easy show to love. At a glance these ceramic sculptures look like a cracked cup here and a lumpy form there. But after spending time with this collection of recent works, I came away stimulated and even moved, mulling over not only questions of how we evaluate art and measure beauty, but thinking of how these same values extend into our "real" lives.

None of these individual works from Jessica Jackson Hutchins' exhibit at Small A Projects, "Hours and Hours," offer dazzling first impressions. Yet Hutchins' work comes together as a kind of visual diary detailing an ongoing spiritual quest. From throwaway materials and moments, she's found a touch of the sublime.

Some artists seek to refine a convincing material experience by removing any irregularities while others invite entropy by creating fissures and cavities, which are places for esthetic skepticism to fester and breed. Jessica Jackson Hutchins is the latter type of artist but with Hours and Ours she seems to be testing a different realm with the addition of a Proustian document laced with family life.
