Wild Thing, I think I love you... but I wanna know for sure. So come on, and hold me tight—I love you. Wild Thing, Chip Taylor, 1965

Roberts & Tilton is pleased to present Wild Thing, an exhibition of works comprised of various approaches to what is considered wild and untamable, yet simultaneously conceptual and laborious. The works included in Wild Thing are not the embodiment or exacting replica of any one “wild thing,” but of any and all things considered “wild.” By presenting a selection of international and local artists, we come to realize that no distance or variation in culture has the ability to jeopardize the absolute integrity or the personal experience of what each viewer might consider “wild.”

Special thanks to Kirin

Gallery hours are Tuesday – Saturday 11:00am – 6:00pm.
