Given its title, it's sort of ironic that the painting has the power to stop you in your tracks. "San Antonio Commute," the anchor work of "Foretopia," a small and wondrous group exhibition at David Shelton Gallery through Friday, is not exactly landscape; it is perhaps more accurately a portrait of the land, a "forced decorative imitation of nature," as its creator, painter Sara Frantz, puts it.
"Foretopia," also features new work by San Antonio artists Judith Cottrell, Jayne Lawrence and Vincent Valdez.
