One Man Group Show is a survey exhibition spanning 35 years of the work of Los Angeles based artist Don Suggs and opens at the Ben Maltz Gallery on Saturday, April 14, 5-7pm and is on view through June 23, 2007.  This exhibition is co-curated by Doug Harvey, artist and art critic for the LA Weekly, and Meg Linton, Director of the Ben Maltz Gallery.

Don Suggs: One Man Group Show is an exhibition and publication that shows the continuity of 35 years of a singular vision in multiple forms. The exhibition includes drawings, painting, photography and sculpture from Sugg's major bodies of work: Passions, Autochthonous Views, Proprietary Views, Portraits, Old Genres, Heuristic Paintings, Tondototems, Paint Ons and Feastpoles. As Doug Harvey points out in an article published oin Modern Painters, "The reason more people don't know about Don Suggs isn't hard to figure. Of the 7 solo exhbitions at LA Louver, no two would lead you to suspect they were the work of the same artist. Suggs works in 3-5 year periods on a particular idea and with specific media, and it is only with a span of time that the continutity, substance, and intelligence behind his aesthetic pursuits are now visible.  Artists are often pressured by the market to find a singular modus operandi and Suggs has taken the road less traveled. He is an artist’s artist and has followed his varied interests in a methodical and intellectually captivating way.
