“America’s Favor/Guests Who Came to Dinner (and Stayed!)”
April 28-July 28
Lynden Sculpture Garden
2145 W. Brown Deer Road
“America”—from its origins to present-day news reports of divisiveness—is a recurrent theme in Evelyn Patricia Terry’s work. Over the course of more than 50 years, Terry has made several bodies of work that address the “conundrum of coexistence that repeatedly occupies the news, my thoughts and many conversations.” In “America’s Favor/Guests Who Came to Dinner (and Stayed!)”—the most recent in a series of exhibitions on the theme—she brings together different bodies of work: an iconic table installation, artist books and mixed-media works that layer drawings and other forms of mark-making on sewn rag paper pieces.
