"What's the Story?" Exhibition
Freight and Volume
This event has ended.
In an age when Google can provide instantaneous public information and images of anyone or anything - anytime and anywhere - it has become increasingly difficult to determine what is fact and what is fiction. One has to edit the plethora of data and description to find the true person/event underneath - and of course, the spectator, as judge and jury, also biases this interpretation of "true" personality and character to a large extent. The four artists in What's the Story? address this challenge, this pursuit of truth, in the divisions between public and private, real and imagined, exterior and interior persona, as well as the influence of autobiography on narrative in general - in a variety of methodology and media. The "Backstory" - whether in graphic sketchbook form by Peik Larsen; video and sound installation by Black Lake; multiple narrative ink drawings by Max Razdow; or grand gestural abstractions in oil by Cesare DeCredico, is the subject and centerpiece of this provocative and beautiful four-person New Year's exhibition.
