黑料不打烊

The Painting Center presents JuxtaPositions, curated by Anthony Cuneo, Alannah Farrell and Robin Feld. Creativity isn鈥檛 only about making entirely new things. The creative process can involve seeing old things in new contexts by joining things that previously seemed completely unrelated or turning conventions, tropes and ideas upside down and inside out. Sometimes, these juxtapositions are humorous; sometimes, they are enigmatic or striking; sometimes, they are shocking. High and low, serious and funny, real and fake, observed and invented, political and personal. These are all choices an artist can make in their work. In a culture saturated by imagery, icons, arguments, products, brands and waste, JuxtaPositions brings artists from all over the country who are inventing something new by mining, reframing, re-contextualizing, and re-conceiving some of the ideas and objects that make up the cultural moment in which we live. These artists are exploring different visual elements to create uniquely contrasting effects.
