September 24 - December 30, 2016 - This exhibition recognizes the exquisitely rendered graphite portrait drawings of Los Angeles gang members, an ongoing series appropriately titled, “Deadly Friends.” Lee approaches his subjects on the streets of Southern California and photographs them as studies for his drawings – a process that relies on mutual trust, honesty and relationship-building. Hand drawn and resolved over many months, the artist diligently renders muscles, pores, scars, tattoos, and facial hair in painstakingly accurate photorealistic detail.
