Motorino Exhibition
The Motorino Exhibition ran at the Roq La Rue Gallery in Seattle, Washington from December 14th 2007 to January 11th 2008. This solo exhibition of Josh Agle’s work included seven original paintings, six very limited-edition digital prints, and forty-two limited-edition artist proof prints. The opening reception was from 6pm to 9pm on December 14th with the exhibition opening the following day. In Italy, a motorino, literally small motor, is a gasoline moped or scooter and these are shown in all of the original paintings and digital prints.
The Motorino Exhibition gallery banner and advertising card are shown below:
