Pillar of Salt; A Glance Back

Jun 1 - Jul 1
Lauren Grossman | THE PENTECOST | 33828

We couldn’t be more proud to welcome Lauren Grossman back to Traver Gallery with this important and timely exhibition, Pillar of Salt; A Glance Back.

For Lauren Grossman, materials and meaning are inextricable. One informs the other and vice versa. So with language and form, and present and past. This symbiosis makes Lauren’s artwork hard to parse out as there is never a single point of view. Instead, she layers meaning upon meaning, playing with symbolism and metaphors like a poet. Her imagery and narratives engage a dialog about a – somehow – universal feeling of religiosity and an urge to make these odd, arcane biblical stories relevant to our modern life. At the same time, her well-worn industrial materials convey a sense of history and a reworking of old sources in the light of the present moment.

Lauren engages us in an ambiguous and rich dialog with her sculptures. Their awkward, uncertain beauty conveys earnest attention to material, meaning, and her consistent endeavors to find contemporary poignancy in the oddness and curious beauty of old conventions.
