Dangerous like a whirlwind of razor blades and seductive as candy coated opium... Alpha-femme photographer Justice Howard ain't for sissies. Justice Howard has a career in photography that spans three decades, thousands of magazine publications, and involves such names as Waylon Jennings, Annie Sprinkle, Dave Navarro and Billy Idol. Show closes June 16

The exhibit features erotic works painted on leather canvas. Of his first showing outside of the UK, the artist says "My work is unashamedly illustrative in nature as I prefer a realism style that I feel is more of a technical challenge than contemporary representative or abstract genres." He developed his painting on leather technique after he was asked to do a bomber jacket sample in early 2011.
