DLG308 Jen Dalton explores the nature of apologies on a personal and social level. Sincerity and vulnerability are part of all of it and more.
Jen Dalton did a great show this summer at Mother-In-Laws, a wonderful, experimental art space in Germantown, run by Jessica Hargreaves, Kathleen Vance and Daniel Aycock
Here's a quote from the press release of Jen's exhibition that will highlight the genesis in topics we covered in this emotionally transparent session: There is so much to apologize for. And almost everyone does a terrible job of it, when they try at all. No amount of money seems to smooth the process from mistakes and bad behavior to self-awareness and reckoning. Famous people are terrible role models in this regard, as so in so many others; their vague, slow-to-emerge statements are designed to imply the bare minimum of contrition and help their careers survive another day. Each text is a shrewdly-honed gem that its crafters hope will dissipate a controversy or deflect attention; taken all together they expose the values of those in power and our culture at large. We’re living through a boom-time for disingenuousness, gaslighting and DARVO*, wholly of a piece with the faux authenticity seen elsewhere in our culture. Mistakes Were Made connects some of these dots. More about this exhibition and photos HERE: https://www.frontroomles.com/motherinlawsarchive
Also—there were so many great artists that Jen curated into the show: Featuring:
Chloë Bass, Celeste Fichter, Ghost of a Dream, Susan Hamburger, Lisa Levy, Alyssa McClenaghan, Jennifer and Kevin McCoy, Sal Muñoz, Andrew Ohanesian, William Powhida, Marshall Reese and Nora Ligorano, Michelle Vaughan, Senon Williams.
