SMILE: A collection of works to chuckle about
Oceanside Museum of Art presents, SMILE, an exhibition that celebrates humor in art. SMILE is curated by former National Lampoon art director,
Michael C. Gross, and includes the work of twenty-four distinguished contemporary artists that have one thing in common: they make you smile. Gross says, "This collection of drawings, paintings, prints and sculpture is designed to make you giggle, chortle, smirk and laugh, tapping one of the most meaningful emotions we have in these tough times, our sense of humor. Art is often described as important, insightful, inspirational and beautiful, but rarely amusing. So, as the saying goes, leave your troubles at the door and lighten up!"
