if you remember that life is fluid you’ll never feel stuck. nothing is the end all or your only option. when something ends it’s your time to start something new. it doesn’t matter how often doors close if you’re always moving forward. don’t dwell or try to open those old doors. the more you keep moving, the more you’ll see life is working in your favor.
when marilyn monroe said “i’ve never fooled anyone. i’ve let people fool themselves. they didn’t bother to find out who and what i was. instead they would invent a character for me. i wouldn’t argue with them. they were obviously loving somebody i wasn’t.”
Opening tonight - June 7th, 2018 - at Joshua Liner Gallery in New York City is artist Mu Pan’s sensational solo exhibition, “Bright Moon Shines on the River.”
From the Gallery: “‘Bright Moon Shines on the River’ is a set of six brand new works, all inspired by one painting of a whale, the artist destroyed, 11 years ago. In its wake we see six different nautical battles between whales, dolphins, sharks, monkeys, and their human hybrid combinations. The mix of violence and humor creates work that is provocative and engaging as the artist borrows from iconography and techniques of Japanese culture. Each acrylic on panel is a seemingly boundless illustrative narrative.”
The exhibition will be on view until July 6th, 2018 and if I were in New York, I’d absolutely stop by.
