Savage values on display

There are few who are stranger to the process of making a purchase, tossing the receipt, and forgetting about it later. Maybe that’s why the new exhibition Goods & Services & Other Things by CCAD graduate Molly Savage (Fine Arts, 2012) is such a breath of fresh air. Savage’s show is comprised of over a dozen hyper-realistic oil paintings of tattered receipts that she has been collecting over the years in order to give the viewer a glimpse of the things she values and is willing to buy. “One of the many reasons I like my receipt paintings is because the painting is still there long after the purchase is gone,” Savage told 614 Magazine.

Molly’s show is up in the German Village Meeting Haus until July 2.
