Art Exhibition: GPAG Joe’s Lounge – TZADDI GORDON | In the Thick of It

to Mar 9 – Joe’s Lounge. After spending many years constrained by the demands of caregiving for her husband with early-onset dementia, Tzaddi Gordon sought ways to make art in the cracks; to wedge a few moments of creativity into days that felt less and less like her own. One of these ways is working in the genre of found poetry. Using vintage books as her source Gordon creates new meaning from outmoded or dogmatic text and imagery through a process of redacting, cutting, or rearranging text, the act of removing and rewriting pages echoing the memory changes she has witnessed in her husband. An exhibition in Joe’s Lounge running Feb 13th – Mar 9th.

Join us for the Opening Reception of this exhibition on Saturday, Feb 15th, 2pm – 4pm; and for a FREE Intro to Blackout Poetry Workshop on Tues. Feb 18th, 2pm – 4pm.
