CURRENT EXHIBITION: February 5 — April 4, 2010 ![]() For the blind man in the dark room looking for the black cat that isn't there
![]() For the blind man in the dark room looking for the black cat that isn’t there starts with the premise that art is not a code that needs cracking. Celebrating the experience of not-knowing and unlearning, the artists in this exhibition understand the world in speculative terms, eager to keep art separate from explanation. Embracing a spirit of curiosity, this show is dedicated to the playfulness of being in the dark. Artists: For the blind man in the dark room looking for the black cat that isn't there was organized by the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis Chief Curator Anthony Huberman.
