This July - LaiSun Keane and Campbell-Lynn are pleased to present: “Mondo: United!”
An eclectic group exhibition celebrating 250 years of . . . ‘Freedom’?
Open on the eve of America's 250th independence day, July 3rd, 2026, until August, 16th, 2026. “Mondo: United!” Presents a gross survey of art and artist that holds a mirror to the inhabitants of America, in all their rich variety. Spanning a breadth of mediums, styles, generations, nationalities, and demographics, while exploring, under the guise of sex, death, war, and sports - themes of: unity, individualism, community, autonomy, and reclamation- in the hopes of discovering a new sense of patriotism.
Including works from: Ariel Posh, Jamieson Edson, Jordan McGirk, Brooke Raven, Michel Costello, Isabelle Couceiro, Yoorim Kim, Kira Mastel, Virgil Tilks, Julia Mcgehean, Andrea Luper, and Sophie Harpo ….
We are in the age of the internet, hyper-connected and super-divided, forced to contend with and within a surge of isolation, extremism, echochambers, division, unrest, and nationalism. Our individual voices are in jeopardy of being drowned out by all that is dis-united, un-American, and morally-askew. Let us, and by proxy yourself, be free! Come gawk in awe at the products of our strange nation! Nudity! Piss! Violence! Bikers! Sex-toys! Girl-on-Girl! Forgotten Wars! Doom! Gloom! Ronald Regan! And some crap- melted by the sun in the back of a 2004 Toyota Corolla with Truck Nutz™ Bolted to the Front!!!
We all have so much to learn from each other. To remain as we are without accepting, or even understanding -who- we are, is impossible. Coexistence requires as much curiosity as it does conviction, the possibility of unity hinges on our willingness to look closely at one another with an open heart and to grow from these encounters.
