| Event Description |
Join us Thursday, September 24th, from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. for a Gallery Walk and Talk with Gregg Jabs as he discusses his technique and the iconography in his exhibition An American Dream. The talk is $5 and complimentary for OMA members. In this dramatic body of mixed media work, ceramic artist Gregg Jabs searches for The American Dream only to find dysfunction. By questioning the reality of the dream, the myth begins to unravel with surprising results. Jabs uses playful circus characters, cowboys, mythical heroes and villains in the exhibition to reflect his deep concern for how society unconsciously shapes beliefs, behavior and culture, ultimately establishing the archetype dream. His installations present social and personal narratives that explore the delicate balance between collective identity and individual response with wry humor and keen insight. |
