LARISSA LOCKSHIN
Far Side of the Valley
5 June - 18 July 2015

Albert Baronian is pleased to announce the first solo show of Larissa Lockshin untitled Far Side of the Valley.

Green, green, it's green, they say
On the far side of the hill
Green, green, I'm going away
To where the grass is greener still

You know there ain't nobody in the whole wide world
Gonna show me how to spend my time
You know I'm just a good loving, rambling man
Now, buddy, can you spare me a dime?

And I sing
Green, green, it's green, they say
On the far side of the hill
Green, green, I'm going away
To where the grass is greener still

-Johnny Rivers

It wants to swing its pendulum back and forth and so on. It wants to go around the track one more time. It is resting on its laurels. It looks like it will be a close call.

In her first solo exhibition at Albert Baronian, artist Larissa Lockshin offers a show of prizes. “Far Side of the Valley” presents the question: Why can’t art be understood without formal theory? All art is merchandise, but not all merchandise is art.
