Porter Contemporary presents The Price of Everything, a solo exhibition of new works by Jennie Barrese opening with an artist reception on Thursday, November 21, 2013 from 6:30 - 8:30 PM.
"Sometimes we come to a place in our lives where we must burn everything to the ground. There comes an energy that takes root inside of us, grows slowly and devours parts of what we once were. It is simply unavoidable. We must either throw gas on the fire or smolder and gradually break under its heat. We must be reborn." says Jennie Barrese.
"The Price of Everything" explores the journey of a shift from a long-standing stable archetype in one's life to a state of complete uncertainty and change. Barrese manifests this change by shifting from photography to painting in her third solo exhibition with Porter Contemporary. For Barrese, the journey was about questioning everything that she knew -- her role as a women in society, as a wife, as a daughter, as a friend, and especially as an artist.For more information, visit http://portercontemporary.com/the-price-of-everything/.
