The Whole Truth Museum: Art Show opening May 4th 7-10 pm!!!!!!

PLEASE REBLOG!

This is the art show/VCUarts grant project that I have been working on with Jaimie McKay, Elise Isom, and Cameron Robinson for the past year.

The aim of the WTM (Whole Truth Museum) is to broadcast some up-and-coming artists making compelling work about a city that is jam-packed with history. We are questioning the authority of the history books and of other supposedly unbiased, “objective” sources of the “truth.”

We are trying to support some great undergrad artists who would otherwise get ignored in the bullshit, white, cis, art-bro patriarchal narrative. So please join us May 4th for an evening of delicious food (and probably a dance party in the back yard.)

My followers will recognize some of the amazing artists listed below:

Colleen Billings

Safiya Bridgewater

Maria Camia

Cath Cowan

Jaclyn Cummings

Mandy Fitzgerald

Brianna Gribben

Maggie Grymes

Jennifer Guillen

Julie Hundley

Elise Isom

Jaimie McKay

Cody Platt

Cameron Robinson

Catherine sent this to me, made me think of Jaimie's Richmond Smell Map. SO COOL!

The museum spreads its surfaces everywhere, and becomes an untitled collection of generalizations that mobilize the eye.
