Current Exhibits
Alexander Reisfar: The Death of Gods and Masters
“Creating uniquely macabre scenes in dystopian settings, his work incorporates elements of nature, death, and humanity in a way that depicts both man’s ruin as well as the tiniest glimmer of hope for mankind, painting an intricate and cautionary tale. Gory, fearful, and at times, downright grotesque, Reisfar’s work is a commentary on society. Playing with themes that are both anti-colonialism as well as anti-war, his portrayal of humans is often melded with morbid elements like decay and death… Somber, macabre, and undoubtedly cautionary, his work is absolutely stunning.” - Alex Wikoff
Zach Brown
Salem Art Gallery has acquired five paintings from artist Zach Brown. His Lace Figures form an imposingly-shrouded coven, which surrounds The Satanic Temple's infamous Baphomet Statue.
And More!
In addition to our permanent collection of art, visitors can peruse the gallery library, which has an extensive collection of reading materials on the Satanic Panic. Guests can also view the elegant throne room, replete with antique 19th century Indo-Persian Khukla Khud devil face helmets, shields, and newly-acquired torture masks from the same era. In addition, The Satanic Temple commissioned the construction of a "misfortune-telling" machine in the visage of Baphomet. This interactive piece talks and is animated and is on display in the gift shop of Salem Art Gallery.
