Spoke Art is proud to welcome back represented artist Tim Doyle for his third solo exhibition with the gallery and the latest installment in his ongoing “UnReal Estate” series. Inspired by the popular culture landscape, quite literally, Doyle re-interprets the iconic settings found in contemporary cult television. These places, though fictional, have become a part of the universal psyche, ingrained in the minds of cartoon and serialized television fans worldwide. The prevalence in contemporary culture of this medium, especially with the excesses of the internet, have transformed fictional characters and scenes into something so close to tangible that they’re immediately recognizable even when viewed through an alternate lens.
For the third installment in the ongoing survey, Doyle has created 12 all new interpretations of locations from both classic and contemporary television, revisiting popular shows and breaking new ground with more topical and current series.
Limited edition prints will be available first to attendees of the February 6th opening reception, with remaining copies available online starting Friday, February 7th. Just like the last 2 years, the first 100 attendees to the UnReal Estate show opening at Spoke Art in San Francisco will receive an exclusive print which is the one shown above titled Junk Television
This exhibition will be on view until February 22nd.

Opening Reception, Thursday February 6th from 6pm to 10pm
