Today's artists don't try to outdo Leonardo; instead they incorporate collage, painting and photography to express body systems in new ways. Frederick Sommer cuts and pastes pictures from "Gray's Anatomy" into eerie, hybrid bodies. Joy Garnett took a found cache of X-rays as the basis for her suite of elegiac paintings. Connie Imboden's distressed gelatin prints portray psychologically loaded bodies and forms. In this context, Doug and Mike Starn's large-scale prints of twisting trees become knots of spidery veins. According to these artists, human flesh encases the decidedly surreal.]]></description><author> Jessica Dawson</author></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Heirs of Frida and Diego]]></title><link>http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A2833-2005Mar2.html?nav=rss_style/columns/galleries</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A2833-2005Mar2.html?nav=rss_style/columns/galleries</guid><pubDate>Thu, 21 Apr 2005 7:38:19 GMT</pubDate><description><![CDATA[They're  calling the exhibition "Mexican Report: Contemporary Art From Mexico."

Occupying the R Street rowhouse gallery once home to Anton and, most recently, Elizabeth Roberts, JET was founded by a collector turned gallery director and two investment partners. They promise a program favoring painting and drawing; this six-person group show is eclectic. The best paintings here are by 2002 Whitney Biennial participant Conor McGrady. He paints striking portraits of skinheads and modern-day corporate suits with nearly identical faces, as if the paramilitary and robber barons share an inner drive. And then there's Ken Bucklew. I simply cannot figure out why his Thomas Kinkade-caliber landscapes, with their rendering of daylight equivalent to office-grade fluorescents and their banal, choppy brushwork, hang here.]]></description><author> Jessica Dawson</author></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where There's A Wall, There's a Way]]></title><link>http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A51927-2005Jan5.html?nav=rss_style/columns/galleries</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A51927-2005Jan5.html?nav=rss_style/columns/galleries</guid><pubDate>Thu, 21 Apr 2005 7:38:19 GMT</pubDate><description><![CDATA[Kelly Towles's "Underdog" exhibition encompasses not just salable digital prints and one-of-a-kind mixed-media works on wood, but also a suite of vivid wall drawings.]]></description><author> Jessica Dawson</author></item><item><title><![CDATA[Graham Caldwell: New Language in Glass]]></title><link>http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A35682-2004Dec29.html?nav=rss_style/columns/galleries</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A35682-2004Dec29.html?nav=rss_style/columns/galleries</guid><pubDate>Thu, 21 Apr 2005 7:38:19 GMT</pubDate><description><![CDATA[I'd been wondering just where Graham Caldwell was headed next. For several years the young Washington artist had turned out blown-glass sculptures -- not the stuff of your mom's knickknack shop, but another species altogether: voluptuous, glossy forms shaped into sacs, tubes evoking the gastrointestinal tract, or embryos crossed with jawbones, all suspended from steel skeletons connoting meat hooks or, if your mind is so inclined, torture devices.]]></description><author> Jessica Dawson</author></item><item><title><![CDATA[An Impressive Work of
