Shows to See Right Now in Dallas

Sarah Ann Weber’s show almost reads as an extended version of Sir John Everett Millais’s Ophelia, albeit with more psychedelia. In one work, I would give you some violets (2022), a blue skeleton lays on its back amid a menagerie of foliage. —William Saradet

Sarah Ann Weber | The Feminist Power of Beauty

Beauty remains an uncomfortable territory for many contemporary artists, which makes the boldness of Sarah Ann Weber’s aesthetics all the more compelling. — Daniel Gerwin

Sarah Ann Weber: Strong Blossoming Thing Forever

Florals become a maximalist patina that engulf the artworks in"Strong Blossoming Thing Forever." The female figures set into these edge-to-edge tropical motifs are lithe and stoic, like classical sculptures pulled out of art history texts. — Lindsay Preston Zappas

Strong Blossoming Thing Forever, An Exhibition of New Works

Rather than replicating the surface details of our environment, Weber’s marvelous evocations of nature concern themselves with the spiritual essence of the world, decentralizing the figure, while treating landscape as something of a fairy tale character in itself.

Weber’s imaginative stylisations propose that the spiritual essence of the world is as complex as our bodies, and a fairy tale character in itself.

Weber indulges in a vein of focused, maximal surreality throughout. If not cartoons, Weber’s varying, vibrant Prismacolor forms and tones seem at least to have their roots in the rich values of an analog television image, one playing nature docs and gardening shows on a loop. — Aaron Horst

The Los Angeles-based artist [Sarah Anne Weber] works primarily with watercolor and colored pencil on paper, as in this recent work on offer at LA’s Anat Ebgi Gallery. Focusing on floral, exotic, and invented organic forms, she bestows her compositions with a distinct sense of psychedelic dreaminess that combines ’70s nostalgia with our culture’s current obsession with all things witchy. —Eileen Kinsella

Interview with Sarah Ann Weber

"By creating environments, I am able to explore gender, decoration and beauty. Focusing on the floral and exotic, my highly detailed, dense compositions become places where growth and entropy, figure and ground, intertwine." —Sarah Ann Weber

Sarah Ann Weber: Scenic View at Club Pro, Los Angeles

The color pencil drawings are the true revelations of an already-strong show. These quite large works on paper choreograph a deeply impossible amount of detail and are nothing short of breathtaking in their strange riots of omnivorous beauty. Though on paper these are in no way sketches or preparations for the canvases; rather they are their counterparts, fully realized unto themselves. —Shana Nys Dambrot
