Jessica Wimbley (MFA 2005) has co-curated a new exhibition entitled “Biomythography: Currency” for Eastside International. Participating artists include Albert Lopez Jr., Marton Robinson and Glen Wilson. This exhibition runs from November 14 to December 12, 2015.

“Currency” investigates multiple forms of currency, in particular, cultural currency and the ways in which they are encoded and decoded in our contemporary culture. Artists in the exhibition engage in mutli-media practices as a means of revealing and navigating cultural currency. They consciously or unconsciously invoke the literary form of Biomythography by fragmenting chronology, uniformity, and narrative.  Their works juxtapose historical facts, life experience, pop culture, and mythology; challenging, forming and informing, art history, display, anthropology, identity, and ritual as well as personal, universal, and institutional perspectives and histories.
