Via The Stranger, we learned of this group show happening at Greg Lundgren's gallery on Thursday night:
Greg Lundgren has a beef with the death-care industry, with its
cookie-cutter headstones and its flat, identical graveyards: It's impersonal, aesthetically bankrupt, and boring. He began his assault by making luminous, cast-glass headstones, then building a death-care gallery where artists and architects can show off
monuments and urns of their own design. He's hosting a group show at this gallery,
The Architect and the Urn, with work by Iole Alessandrini, Heather Flood, Stranger Genius Alex Schweder La, and many others. (
Lundgren Monuments, 1011 Boren Ave, info@lundgrenmonuments.com. Opening reception 5–9 pm, free.)
