Allison Baker: Abject Permanence

Dreamsong, 1237 4th St. NE, announces the gallery’s first solo exhibition for Minneapolis-based artist Allison Baker (b. 1988, Detroit). Adorned with glistening teal tongues and bubblegum stucco, Abject Permanence is a fever dream that pops with color, kitsch, and a come-hither wink, teetering between salivating desire and queasy revulsion. In an expansive exhibition of new works in sculpture, collage, and video, Baker probes how desire functions in a domestic sphere stratified by gender and class. Sept. 10-Oct. 2.
