EXHIBITIONISTA: “Evidence of Joy” at Intersect Arts Center
Intersect Arts Center 3636 Texas Ave, St. LouisSays curator April Parvitz:, "When I look at the current world of art, I feel like I see a lot of evidence of many inspiring things, but not always so much joy. I know in my own art practice, I am often fueled by loud palpable emotions like pain and confusion. Perhaps if I begin practicing using joy as fuel, I will begin to do it more habitually. Perhaps if we practice seeing joy more we can become habitual joy detectives.
Show me all the joy! I want to see and share artwork made in joy, artwork made upon discovering evidence of joy, and work that is just pure joy to look at! "
