DESCRIPTION:Bay area artist Rene Capone doesn't accept status quo. He is an advocate of 
 the belief that art is a lie which tells the truth and he entices the 
 senses with the bold and theatrical. Capone creates mixed media paintings 
 of an alternative and allegorical reality, a mystical world where boys talk 
 to unicorns and wear animals pelts on their heads. His emotional and 
 graphic styles are inflected by Yaoi, boy on boy sex comics from Japan, and 
 his fantastical imagery spurs mythological metaphors of harnessing the 
 knowledge of the past to tackle the future. Capone transgresses the 
 boundaries of traditional Japanese comics through reappropriation and wit, 
 co-writing a modern legend inspired by the series of paintings. 'The Legend 
 of Hedgehog Boy,' soon to be published, integrates the visual and literary 
 worlds with dynamic results. Each canvas is filled with powerful 
 compositions, favoring homoerotic themes, accented by an expressionistic 
 line and cool color palette which creates an ethereal backdrop to this 
 bizarre gay love story of sexuality, twisted punishment, revenge and 
 personal discovery.\n\n
