“So at the age of fifty-six I, Hoxworth Hale, have discovered that I, too, am one of those Golden Men who see both the West and the East, who cherish the glowing past and who apprehend the obscure future…”

The Modern Dunce Series

13 07 2009

This Friday July 17th at 7pm is the opening reception for an art show I have been working on for almost the past two years – The Modern Dunce Series

Collaborating with Yanique Norman has been – - difficult on the one hand because I’ve never worked so closely with someone creatively — and eye opening on the other. I’ve gone from being one of those anonymous faces on the street who have no knowledge of the art world and how it functions — to being thrown in the middle of a thriving cities art scene.

It’s all very strange – sometimes beautiful and thought provoking – somethings stupid and a waste of time. I’m still figuring out how I feel about it all, as in – whether or not I would like to continue something in this art world – but at least now I’ve had the experience of toiling with the “work” and figuring out how to get it on the wall.

At this point I will never judge too harshly another artists work because I know personally how difficult it was for that person to just get something on the wall.

Anyway – it’s been a long two years and the show is finally here. – The Modern Dunce Series at Sandler Hudson Gallery in Atlanta (www.SandlerHudson.com)
