Edgar Arceneaux - The Fall

Please join us in our upstairs space [entry next door to Dreamsong] for the launch of The Fall, a new publication featuring writing by Henriette Huldisch, Chief Curator of the Walker Art Center, Gregory Smith, Co-Founder of Dreamsong, and excerpts from an interview with Edgar Arceneaux alongside images of works from the artist’s 2025 exhibition at Dreamsong. Edgar will be visiting from Los Angeles for the occasion.

“Demise, aftershock, and persistence all thread through Arceneaux’s recent series of paintings, albeit ambiguously and, if you will, behind the mirror: George Floyd’s brutal death and the uprisings for racial justice that spread from Minneapolis throughout the world; Minnesota’s harsh climate, threatened by existential climate change; as well as personal loss and grief. And yet in many ways, this project reverses Arceneaux’s previous itinerary, taking its departure from a deeply material process that brought a narrative, or rather narratives, into focus along the way.” - Henriette Huldisch
