Not Everything Is White and Black to Friday, March 10, from 5 – 8 p.m. at 179 Front St., Owego in the Main Gallery. Visitors can enjoy an Artist Talk by Todd at 6 p.m. that day.

Exhibition Statement
TRUTH? Not Everything Is White and Black is a show by Owego, NY artist Todd Wolfe that challenges the viewer to reconsider the false narratives that we often create about ourselves, others, and the world around us. Through the use of 13 diptychs, the show presents statements that are obviously false alongside statements of the false narratives we create that we assume are true, but are also false. The large centerpiece containing a two-way mirror summarized Todd’s hope for the show: to move viewers away from a live of judgment towards a life of introspection.

About Todd Wolfe
Todd Wolfe is an artist from Owego. In 2021, after years of designing and building art furniture, Todd’s creative direction moved towards the canvas the challenge of distorting canvas out of its traditional two-dimensional plane. His background in woodworking and his eye for detail has given him the skills needed to create the precise yet sturdy wood structures that lie beneath these canvases. His years of designing and building art furniture has given him the visual vocabulary to design and arrange these canvases in ways that create a visual interest that constantly changes as the viewer moves around the pieces.
