But in Cushenberry’s hands, the unicorn goes cyberpunk. A figure in green (reader? dreamer?) holds a tattered photo of a woman whose face is literally split open. Behind her: a burst of purple against candy-striped wallpaper.

Gross, best known for his emotionally charged paintings that oscillate between figuration and expressionist distortion, has long used drawing as an autonomous field of research.
