Poets Interpreting Art
Art by Janine Thornton & Poet Collective
MC: Marissa Forbes & Janine Thornton

Edge Gallery’s annual group exhibition, Degenerates, is both timely and provocative. It references the infamous 1937 exhibition in Nazi Germany designed to humiliate and discredit artists—particularly those creating abstract works, art exposing the horrors of war and other themes and cutting edge styles. That event sought to vilify artistic voices that challenged the regime’s ideology.

As a collective of artists collaboratively running the Edge Art Gallery, our member artists are diverse in our practices and perspectives. This is the gallery’s regular annual exhibition showcasing our individual works, without a unifying theme necessarily. However, some members have made statements reflecting on the historical significance of the 1937 Degenerate Art Exhibition as it applies to their art. The exhibition will also include historical photographs, video and other reference material about the 1937 Degenerate Art Exhibition. Edge Gallery presents this exhibition to affirm the enduring value of creative freedom and to resist attempts to marginalize or vilify artistic voices.

Opening Reception Friday, May 9, 6-9 PM

Gayla Lemke   Forbidden

Throughout history, ancient stories have influenced society…especially in the context of gender and power dynamics. These cultural myths breed misogyny and a lack of empathy which then impact modern reality.

At the heart of the work in “Forbidden” lies the myth of Eve and the forbidden fruit – a narrative that has long been used to justify the oppression of women. Using ceramic books, abstract sculpture, tree forms and text, “Forbidden” expresses the need for empathy and understanding in a time when we need to break free from narratives that dehumanize and divide us.

Katie Hoffman    Agita

My oil paintings for this show were all created in the tumult and anxiety of the past twelve months. Some reflect that angst; some reflect a more light-hearted whimsy and little sparks of hope.

Phil Rader     UNFINISHED

Come see my new paintings & tell me if you think they are finished or not!

Lydia Farrell     Spam Calls From The Abyss

I don’t like making shows about just one topic. When I make a painting, I feel like anything can potentially be a subject: Being trans, acknowledging mystery, sobriety, politics, even pop culture. In these dark times I think it is important to sometimes be direct (especially when it comes to politics). Personally, though, I don’t like making things that are just a quick execution of my first idea. I like making work where I have a conversation with the piece. But if I put in something political, I want it to be direct and painterly.

Gallery Talk with Jason McKinsey, April 5 at 12:30 PM

Alane Holsteen    100 Years of Solace: a collaboration with Paralee Witt

In this exhibition of new paintings, Alane Holsteen is joined by her great-grandmother Paralee Witt, who died 72 years ago. Paralee began painting while living in a dugout, raising 10 children, and painting on scraps of fabric or paper when she could, to ultimately painting large canvases at college in her 80’s. Though Alane and Paralee’s paintings are separated by 100 years, the two explore landscape and nature, side by side, finding solace through hard times, and recreating hope.

Jason McKinsey     This American Dream

This solo exhibition by photographer and Edge Gallery member Jason McKinsey explores liminal spaces in the context of the deterioration of the American Dream. Join Jason on April 5 at 12:30 while he speaks to the project.
