Adler Guerrier – Wikipedia
Wikipedia article on Adler Guerrier was made public today. With an appropriate not-easy-yet-emcompassing sentence.
“The exhibition Adler Guerrier: Formulating a Plot, showcased a large number of photographs, sculptures, drawings, prints, and collage work to contextualize Miami not only as a geographical site but also as a nuanced sociocultural territory through its arts production, politics, urban and natural landscapes.“
“To write a blues song
is to regiment riots
and pluck gems from graves.”

“you can fall for what isn’t there already
[…]Best believe in the world more than yourself.
Diptych, Kevin Young
Christopher Stephen on A Landscape longed for at CEAM for Burnaway (041524).
“… an expanded collection of artists who address identity, belonging, and historical reverence through the intricate visual metaphors associated with the garden.
[…]A Landscape Longed For: The Garden as Disturbance expressly reminds one that shared human histories of time and place are imbedded in the dirt. The timeless adage “When in doubt, turn to nature”, serves as a poignant reminder of the deep-rooted connections between the garden and the human experience. Plants, like people, hold histories often obscured by time or memory, yet their significance is felt empathetically. The exhibition offers an enriching garden that nourishes both the physical and spiritual needs of those who take the time to walk, look, and contemplate, among the plants.”

AG2024_2030166a or incredible justice and likeness
The care with which the rain is wrong and the green is wrong and the white is wrong, the care with which there is a chair and plenty of breathing. The care with which there is incredible justice and likeness, all this makes a magnificent asparagus, and also a fountain.
Tender Buttons [A Light in the Moon], Gertrude Stein
