“Everything Contains Some Silence” is Andrew Hendrixson and Amanda Love’s first two-person exhibition together. Both artists have practices that are informed by language, and by words written and spoken, hidden and quieted. Culture, poetry, language in its many forms, including the plastic arts’ own vocabulary, enter their work both through subject matter and the materials they use. Love uses retired books, removing their printed pages to create gravely lyrical works from exposed spines and tears of paper: vessels of meaning with the content excised, while Hendrixson, who is also a writer and studies Theology, Philosophy, and the Arts at Duke University, employs literary texts, ancient narratives, and his own writings, to expand our understanding of art. Stop in and experience works by these artists where books and artwork blend and looking and reading are the same conversation.
