ARCHIVUM will close tomorrow. Thank you to everyone who visited and especially for your questions and conversations. I always like how people seem somewhat apprehensive about articulating their response or questioning of possible meanings in different works, not just the works from this show but any works that require a certain search for reasoning. Often they make very poignant observations without being aware of it. Especially art students who are in a sense just commencing the search for their own imaginative response to the everyday, or perhaps its more a case of recapturing it. A simple observation is that conversations about things from the past always have a sense of being far more embedded in the present, in the here and now then conversations about the very things that perpetually anchor us to contemporary life. The gallery hours are from 10am-4pm.
perhaps it's that need for telling the story slant...
ReplyDelete"Tell all the truth but tell it slant —
Success in Circuit lies
Too bright for our infirm Delight
The Truth's superb surprise
As Lightning to the Children eased
With explanation kind
The Truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind —"
by Emily Dickinson
I like your slant.
