Press Release

Correspondences is a group exhibition about memory and the outstretched hand. The title can mean “affinities,” or alternately “dialogues” and actual letter-writing. The perspectives in the exhibition imagine subjects tethered across divides, spanned by an outward or inward (and perhaps futile, messianic*) reach toward counter, familiar, distant textual location, or the shifting mythology of oneself. Thoughts include:

Twin gods;
The touch of the bird;
Tissue Door—;
Propitiation;
The way of saying things;
The weak force;
Othello’s feeling.

Correspondences is organized by François Ghebaly Associate Director, Wes Hardin.
