Opening Saturday, April 29th, from 6PM - 9PM

On view through Saturday, June 3rd

Ariel Wolfe Baldwin, Marcelo Eli, Matthew Hilhorst, Michelle Stone

……a work of art may be understood as a corrective; a metaphoric subversion of a felt deficit; a purposeful installation of something actual; a “real” representation of an impulse to make the world better even if only in the eyes of the maker. So while Baldwin, Eli, Hilshorst, and Stone may contend with theoretical, political, and ideological at a distance, they nonetheless seek accomplishment along a path leading towards change and, perhaps, resolution.
