FUTURE IMPERFECT TENSE
OPENING
SATURDAY MAY 3
1-4PM
About the show:
Future Imperfect Tense is the coming to fruition of an idea that has been simmering for years. Confronted daily with images of chaos and destruction, we ask: “How do artists make sense of the world we live in?”
“So this is man - the worst and best of him - this frail and petty thing who lives his day and dies like all the other animals, and is forgotten. And yet, he is immortal, too, for both the good and evil that he does live after him.”
- Thomas Wolfe, You Can’t Go Home Again, Chapter 27 ‘The Locusts Have No King’ (Scribner, 1934)
The work in Future Imperfect Tense delves into fragility, persistence, memory, ruin, grief and defiance. Each piece carries the imprint of a world in flux.
The show opens on May 3, 1-4pm, with Q&A with the artists (all will be present), and continues through June 7.
Our open hours for the show are Thursday through Sunday, 11-4, or by appointment.
