Afterburner is a fearless tour de force and an absolute must see. With nothing like it in the San Diego area, TECHNE stands out as a lush oasis in a very barren landscape. With TECHNE's boldest exhibition to date, curator Chuck Thomas embarks on an ambitious extravaganza that should be both heralded and acknowledged. The abundant supply of color and texture in this show is spectacular.

When it comes to assessing an exhibition like Afterburner, it is important to consider the context in the art world. As a platform for art, TECHNE is attracting artists from both the East and West coast. It is through this bi-coastal dialogue and exchange of ideas that the gallery shines.

Afterburner showcases the innovative talent of artists Jon Elliott, Jack Henry, Robin Kang, Dave Kinsey, Jason Clay Lewis, John Oliver Lewis, Mônica Lóss, Jessica McCambly, Tim Murdoch, Sasha Koozel Reibstein, and Allison Renshaw. The exhibition challenges conventional boundaries by manipulating both traditional and unconventional materials in unique ways. The blend of themes in the artists creations result in mesmerizing installations that captivate with their balance of controlled chaos and playful aesthetics.

The transformation of TECHNE into such an ambitious environment focused on carefully crafted individual displays deserves commendation.
