There’s concept in crazy. Order in chaos. Wisdom in the bizarre. You’ll get a glimpse of this when you experience “Party Fouls,” Moe Gram’s current exhibition at the Lamont Gallery on the Phillips Exeter Academy, Exeter, New Hampshire-campus.
Gram, a multidisciplinary artist from Denver, has executed these disparate ideas by using a diverse toolbox. With a bold color palette, collage, photography, juxtaposition of embellishments and found objects, she encourages the viewer to reflect on, and enrich, their lives.
My advice, as you wander through this joyful show, is to loosen up a bit. Decide to garner some insightful takeaway from this exhibition and just be present with the fun! For a short while, put aside overdue bills, doctor’s appointments, crazy-busy schedules and indulge in whimsy.
