Sikkema Jenkins & Co. group show explores home as memory and emotion
There's an exhibition called 'A House Is Not a Home' happening at Sikkema Malloy Jenkins, showcasing the work of ten artists. They delve into how concepts of home relate to our memories, histories, and sense of comfort. You'll find a variety of art forms here, like painting, sculpture, textiles, and photography, from talents including Josephine Halvorson, Arturo Herrera, and Marie Watt, among others. The exhibition's title nods to a classic 1964 song by Burt Bacharach and Hal David, which was famously sung by Dionne Warwick and later by Luther Vandross.
