Alwun House is deeply honored to showcase the extraordinary talent of George Strasburger in his upcoming exhibit, “We Are Them.” Emerging from Tucson, George is a powerful painter whose work transcends conventional boundaries. His mastery lies in his unique ability to blend classical techniques with contemporary themes.

Strasburger’s paintings are a testament to his unwavering commitment to realism, capturing the essence of the common man. He focuses on the working class, portraying human nature in its most authentic form through his emotive oil paintings. Each piece serves as a window into the lives of his subjects, revealing the beauty and struggle of everyday existence.

The compositions are thoughtful and sensitive, expressing fundamental truths with a raw honesty that resonates deeply. George’s art compels viewers to engage with basic acts of life, inviting them to empathize with the characters’ experiences. Reality is not merely a backdrop in his work; it is the very fabric of life laid bare for all to witness and reflect upon.

In “We Are Them,” the audience will be encouraged to dig deep into the narratives of each character, seeking profound insights into the realities of survival. Every painting tells a compelling story, evoking curiosity and a desire to understand the lives depicted. Few artists possess the ability to portray the stark truths of life so realistically, inspiring compassion and empathy towards the human condition.

Don’t miss this opportunity to immerse yourself in the raw emotional depth and compassion that define Strasburger’s work. Experience his unique vision of sympathy for humanity, and walk away with a renewed sense of benevolence toward our shared existence. This exhibit promises to be a transformative journey into the heart of life itself, showcasing some of the most poignant and impactful paintings in the Southwest.
