Slang for “hot gossip,” Hot Goss features all twelve of the Museum’s resident artists’ work in dialogue. The exhibition posits that no artist works within a vacuum and that creative ideas get swapped and reinterpreted just like pieces of juicy gossip; concepts, colors, and approaches to material invariably become exchanged from one artist to another because of open dialogue, social media, sharing a studio space, or simply working in close proximity. Sometimes irreverent, often thought-provoking, and always eye-catching, the works in Hot Goss share a willingness to experiment with ideas and break the rules.
