Following an announcement in July, Barry McGee has now launched his exhibit at the Museum of Contemporary Art Santa Barbara called “SB Mid Summer Intensive.” The landmark show features the San Francisco-based artist’s signature paintings, drawings, sculptures, and mixed-media pieces. McGee’s ubiquitous sign-painting style alongside minimalist illustrations are observed across the works.

Tour “SB Mid Summer Intensive” above and head over to MCA Santa Barbara’s official website to learn more. The show is on view until October 14. In other art news, we sat down with Joshua Vides to discuss his latest basketball court installation in Hong Kong.
