Gallery 44 is pleased to present Living in 10 Easy Lessons, an exhibition featuring the collaborative work of Linda Duvall<\/strong> and Peter Kingstone.<\/strong> Living in 10 Easy Lessons comprises short instructional videos, a public poster series and take-away publication that engage ten women as they teach the artists skills they use in their everyday lives.<\/p>\n

The exhibition aims to call attention to contemporary modes of education, where nearly anything can be learned through a series of steps, while simultaneously complicating assumptions around what these kinds of teaching and learning relationships can look like. Through the construction of a pedagogical relationship between the artists and their instructors, Duvall and Kingstone address both the potential and the problems of abstracting lived experience, thereby giving shape to related concerns around legitimacy, power and social change.<\/p>\n

Co-organized with the Graduate Progrram in Social Work, Ryerson University, Buddies in Bad Times Theatre, Tallulahs Cabaret.<\/p>\n
