At its core, “Beauty Marks” is a celebration of the creative bonds that connect artists. This exhibition was inspired by Derek Gores, who not only presents his own innovative collage works but also handpicked Cindy Press and Robert Mars, two artists whose practices resonate deeply with his own. The show exemplifies how shared artistic practices can create meaningful dialogues between works, inviting viewers to experience the harmony and tension that arise from these connections.

“Beauty Marks” is not just an exhibition of individual talent but a collective exploration of the ties that bind artists. Derek Gores, Cindy Press, and Robert Mars each bring their unique voices to the conversation, creating a cohesive narrative that explores themes of identity, nostalgia, and the passage of time. This exhibition offers a rare opportunity to witness the intersection of these three distinct yet complementary artistic practices.
