Curated by the gallery’s program manager, Haley Finnegan, the show opens Thursday, June 29, with an opening reception from 5 to 7 p.m., and runs through Aug. 12.
Ranging from the deeply personal to the overtly political, the works in "Home Economics" engage with issues including debates over immigration, changing notions about gender and family roles, and the growth of militant nationalism. Through paintings of intimate interiors, cheeky reinterpretations of domestic artifacts, and various representations of houses, “home” becomes a site for nostalgia, pride, and even anxiety. The included artists are Natalie Baxter, Kim Beck, Laurent Chéhère, David Cuatlacuatl, Rachel Farbiarz, Adia Millett, Danielle Mužina, Nick Naber, Hillel O’Leary and Polly Shindler.
