Ward Schumaker, in association with George Lawson Gallery, will exhibit two of his hand-painted dumb boxes, “Big Heaven” and “Trust Me” at this week's artMRKT San Francisco.

About these works, painter Eric Fischl has written: "I like very much what I am seeing of the boxes. There is always your touch, your sensibility and there is also an authenticity to the weight of your sentiments. The sculptural aspect is very sophisticated without being too much so. They feel just right. They are poetic. They are slow to process, slow to sink in....Intimate and powerful stuff."
