Bethany Collins's one-person exhibition Chorus at Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis, MO.
Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis's press release follows:
For multidisciplinary artist Bethany Collins, language is an obsessive preoccupation. Language is both her subject and primary material—from dictionaries and classified ads to patriotic songs and bureaucratic reports. Language is also a prism through which she explores American history and the nuance of racial and national identities. This exhibition offers insight into her unique practice—conceptually-driven work which struggles insistently with the duality of language—its potential and its inevitable failure to make sense.
