JOY GARNETT
Garnetts series Riot finds a common ground
between violent street demonstrations and the
leaps and grimaces of rock and roll. You can spot
the threatening good looks of a rocker in the
long-haired boy throwing a Molotov cocktail, as
well as in the uniformed young pilot hugging his
girlfriend on an airstrip. Garnetts brushy impasto
pushes the verite elements of the images (which
are derived from news photos) toward glam.
Through Feb. 21. (Debs, 525 W. 26th St.
212-643-2070.)
