Jeff Soto “Turning In Circles” at Riverside Art Museum

The first museum exhibition for an artist is always an exciting prospect. For Jeff Soto that his Turning in Circles is mounted at his hometown Riverside Art Museum must be a dream come true. 20 paintings, quelled from the last 12 months of work, hangs beside a 50-foot wall installation. The exhibition runs until February 21, 2009.

Juxtapoz’s coverage of the show also includes a few childhood works of Soto’s. For this we’re thankful, the opportunity to see the seeds of growth is a special one. See that work, and selections from Turning in Circles after the jump.
