We were honored to have acclaimed painter and featured artist  Brad Davis in the gallery for an inspiring artist talk about his solo show "Heirlooms." Brad's paintings are centered around the urban environment and seek to transform its banality through careful and personal reconstruction. Through painting Cincinnati's ever changing landscape,  he hopes to preserve what will inevitably be lost: those treasures that become our city's heirlooms.  Unfortunately, due to a technical snagfu, the video is unavailable and will sadly not be a heirlom.
