Middle Grounds

Jonathan Clyde Frey

January 7–February 7, 2019

The work in this exhibition explores national identity, largely focusing on iconic representations of the United States and the myths, clichés and stereotypes they often come to represent. In addition,  has always identified as a person somewhere between the mainstream and the marginalized, which informs his way of thinking about art and the world, and, in turn, has led him to these questions: What does it mean to occupy a middle ground? Is it a beneficial position?

Frey is an artist and designer whose work broadly explores the influences of ideology on contemporary culture. He has earned degrees in art and design from the University of Dayton, the University of Florida and the Pratt Institute and is currently an assistant professor at Bucknell University.
