Humor Us

October 25th 2020 - January 2nd 2021

Humor Us is a group exhibition of artists working on the many locations of humor— from the comic object, the politically biting, the silly, the prop, where the overlooked meets the hilarious, and the pun. The world needs humor now. Humor is a salve, it’s a politic, a laugh, and a poetic.

From the curator:
Mark Twain wrote, “Humor is the good-natured side of a truth.” While much of our current public sphere is acutely arduous, humor creates an alternative lens within which to view and critique our cultures and ourselves. Humor is an essential component of humanity, and humanity is exactly what is needed and necessary, especially now.
