Group show Palling Around with Socialists questions the nature of an individual as an autonomous being or as a component to an equitable community.
“Our nation presently finds itself in a culture war, where language is traversing outside the bounds of denoted definitions: words like socialist, fascism, czar and terror are volleyed around public debates,” the gallery said in a statement about the exhibit.
“While different parties and groups fear a loss of personal freedoms, we may be at greater risk of misarticulating the perceived conflicts with which we are faced.”
Concerns about the nature of private property, authorship and current intersections between economics, ethics and philosophy are raised by artists Shinsuke Aso, Gabriel Boyce and Preston Link, Alton Falcone, David Horvitz, Justin Kemp, Steve Kemple, Julia Schwadron and Steve Lambert.
