A conversation with Henry Associate Curator Sara Krajewski and exhibiting artist Matthew Day Jackson, whose work is featured in The Violet Hour through October 12, 2008. Matthew Day Jackson, a University of Washington alumni, debuts three new works, including a sculpture consisting of a crashed race car frame lit with low rider effects and an immense wood panel “painting” depicting the constellations of the night sky, made from the coin currencies of many nations. Jackson’s work explores events in American history and envisions a future of uprisings rectifying past injustices. Sara and Matthew discuss the exhibition’s themes, his work in The Violet Hour, sculpture, history, and performance.
