Collecting Jennifer Dalton

24 Dec Collecting Jennifer Dalton

Dalton3 I received an early present today when I discovered in the mail my "Contemporary Art According to Jen" power point presentation on CD that I purchased from Andrea at Curator’s Office in Washington D.C.

Jennifer Dalton is represented by Plus Ultra in Brooklyn and had a recent showing of this piece at Andrea’s space in DC. I forgot were I heard about the CD but it sounded very interesting to me because we in the art world often take ourselves a little too seriously and I do enjoy a little sense of humor in art….especially with all the heaviness we’re faced with these day’s.

My favorite slide:

Something Really Important is Being Addressed, But it’s Difficult to Say What.

Artists under this heading include:

Sam Taylor-Wood, Matthew Barney, Matthew Ritchie, Rachel Whiteread, Douglas Gordon, and of course GOD.

    Thanks for mentioning Jen’s CD. During the exhibition it was part of, we had more people laughing out loud in the gallery than ever. It’s a wonderful piece.
    And hopefully without sounding too much like a dealer, I’ll mention that Jen recently updated the presentation (version 2.0) and it’s better than ever.
    Just like software, if you own version 1.0 you can get Version 2.0 at a significant disount (again, not to sound too much like a dealer).

    Thanks for posting this! It was a big hit at Curator’s Office in Washington, DC, too.
    And Jen’s upgrade is fantastic, too.
    Yes, a good sense of humor is a must these days.
    Glad to hear about the blog, too.
