“Idiom 1” Exhibition
Pierogi
This event has ended.
Idiom I is developed around the concept of “willing suspension of disbelief,“ the notion proposed in 1817 by the poet and aesthetic philosopher Samuel Taylor Coleridge. He suggested that if a writer could infuse a “human interest and a semblance of truth” into a fantastic tale, the reader would suspend judgment concerning the implausibility of the narrative. Each of these artists’ takes on this notion in their own idiosyncratic manner. There is a sense of suggested narrative which is nonethless implausible.
