King Dogs Never Grow Old: Curated by Brooke Wise
Past exhibition
Overview
Diane Rosenstein Gallery is pleased to announce King Dogs Never Grow Old, a group exhibition curated by Brooke Wise. The show will include paintings, sculpture, ceramics, works on paper, and tufted wall hangings by Ginny Casey, Sam Crow, Tom of Finland, Haley Josephs, Jillian Mayer, Haley Mellin, Robert Moreland, Rose Nestler, Scott Reeder, Matthew Sweesy, Bri Williams, and Chris Wolston. The show’s title, borrowed from influential Surrealist text Les Champs Magnétiques (The Magnetic Fields), by André Breton and Philippe Soupault (1920) alludes to exploring the nonsensical and the dreamlike unconscious. The work on view in this exhibition shares a common dialogue and aims to explore these surrealist notions in a contemporary manner.
