Brett DePalma: The Rake's Progress (opening reception)

GARNERVILLE, NY – GARNER Arts Center is pleased to present The Rake’s Progress, a new exhibition and collection of work by Brett DePalma, as the artist applies sardonic satire to fulfill his self-obligated role as a “muck raker” and contributor of social commentary. Satire offers a way to critique, ridicule, or highlight societal issues, focusing on the absurdities and vices of individuals in power. In the enduring power and adaptability of the genre, the core purpose is to reflect, critique, and often challenge the status quo, using humor to understand the complexities of our society.
