Exhibition Description
There are old friends there, and new. Ideas flow freely, conversation is light and easy. We trust each other. We are critical. We are passionate. We listen patiently. We each have our time to speak. The sun sets, the sun rises, the full moon never dips below the horizon. The sun feels good on your skin. There is music, laughter. Children play, and when they speak, we listen. We take what the children say the most seriously of all. Then we let them play some more. There is enough to eat, the food and drink are delicious and clean. We don’t tire. A gentle throbbing energy bubbles up in the space between us, palpable, tangible, you can hold it in your hand. Days turn to years, years turn to lifetimes, and back. The day is the only time that exists.
Adam Marnie is an artist and writer living in Houston, Texas, where he runs the publishing press F Magazine and the exhibition space F. The current exhibition, 5 Women, featuring work by Amy Blakemore, Jillian Conrad, Dana Frankfort, Francesca Fuchs, and Katrina Moorhead, is on view through November 3, 2024. Recent publications include F Magazine, issue 12: GOOD AND EVIL (May 2024), F. Richard Coldwell’s dystopian noir Lies from the Flies on the Wall, and the chapbook Going Home is Leaving It by Jen Fisher. The next chapbook, Stephanie LaCava’s Class Dirt Clown School, will be released in October, with a performance by LaCava in Houston.
This exhibition is the twenty-ninth in a series of online exhibitions curated exclusively from White Columns’ Curated Artist Registry.
