DON’T BELIEVE EVERYTHING YOU THINK
Curated by Galia Linn
April 22–June 16, 2023
The Brand Library and Art Center
Glendale
Don’t Believe Everything You Think, is an exhibition that explores how artists manage the universal impulse of negative self-talk through their artistic practice. Working across multiple disciplines: painting, collage, sculpture, photography, performance, video, and sound, the 14 featured artists exert concerted effort to push past, accept, or prevail over their own negative self-talk. Through the sanative process of their art—from genesis, to creation, and finally presentation—they have learned that it is best to not always believe everything you think.
Artists in the Exhibition: Sacha Halona Baumann, Adrienne DeVine, Alexandra Grant, Iva Gueorguieva, Bettina Hubby, Janna Ireland, Galia Linn, Amanda Maciel Antunes, Erin Morrison, Jacky Perez, Alicia Piller, Madaline Riley, Elena Stonaker, Camilla Taylor.
