“Aftertaste”

L.A.-based Sam Keller’s bedazzled cans took the art side of the internet by storm a few years ago, so it’s exciting that now Austinites can see them, and more recent work, in person. Armed with a 7-year-old’s sense of humor – see: a White House diorama constructed of McDonald’s fries dubbed Ancient Grease – and a mighty ability to translate a dark joke into physical form, Keller’s sculptures are satirical totems of our consumerist modern age. – Lina Fisher
