In his review in the Los Angeles Times, art reviewer David Pagel called Erin Cosgrove's portraits of America's founding fathers -- currently on display at Angles Gallery in Culver City -- "wickedly original." Pagel goes on to describe Cosgrove's bas-reliefs as depicting George Washington, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson, John Adams and Abraham Lincoln as "humble dudes who have come back from the dead to find themselves in a world weirder and wackier than anything they experienced the first time around."

The works will be exhibited at Angles until October 27th. Angles Gallery is located at 2754 S La Cienega Blvd.

Cosgrove is a faculty member at West LA College, and judging by the comments ("She's amazing") on RateMyProfessors.com, she's a good one.
