Final days of ‘Memory and Resistance’ at SVMA
Posted on June 13, 2017 by Sonoma Valley Sun
The nine-foot tall cardboard construction “Liberty Weeps” is included in “Memory and Resistance: The Work of Joseph DeLappe,” through June 18 at the Sonoma Valley Museum of Art.
Aggressively political, DeLappe has been working in new media for over 25 years, redefining protest art while revisiting gaming and technology with a hackster aesthetic. His work “is located at the crossroads of protest art, gaming, and technology,” said Linda Cano, the museum’s executive director. “(It) addresses the central moral issues of today in an interactive, and sometimes provocative manner.”
Opening July 1, the exhibition “Albert Paley: Thresholds.”
551 Broadway, Sonoma. 11 a.m.-5 p.m. Wednesdays (free) through Sundays. $5. Svma.org.
