CLOSING ARTISTS BRUNCH NARRATIVE LIMINAL

Saturday October 15th  1pm-5pm

1826 Fleet Street, Baltimore, MD 21231

Narrative Liminal features the work of John Bohl and Mike Peter Smith. Both Artists’ concepts refer to the in-between states and conditions that allude to disarray. Their work is critical of the discontinuity of traditional narrative while contributing to the dissolution of order.  At the same time, the work is informative of the continuity of tradition.

Works by: Mike Peter Smith • John Bohl

Journalism is being challenged by increasing Balkanization, resulting in a gap in perspectives that is also redefining the way in which sources are established and fact is formed.  Currently, substrates of traditional ethics in Journalistic Narrative are the topics for critique in this niche media landscape.  As individual personas are established to maintain a ringside media perspective, a dialogue heavily reflected by bias is created. This is reflected in everything from small scale blogs to corporate conglomerates. The gaping margins of perspectives create an ambivalent moral market for inhabitants of the American home.

Photos from John Bohl and Jordan Bernier’s Book Release at Current Space

I got to this show late, so there weren’t too many minglers left. Not too late, though, as I managed to get a copy of the book. It’s full of beautiful illustrations. I’ll put some of my favorite up sometime in the near future. I also got a print by Hermonie Only, which I’m very excited about.
