The Pennsylvania Gazette talks with ICA’s chief curator, Anthony Elms, who adapted The Freedom Principle from its origin at Chicago’s Museum of Contemporary Art:
“The show is much more colorful than many art shows you’ll see here,” says Elms. “Not to stereotype us, but you’ll normally see a lot of black, a lot of gray, a lot of white, a lot of subdued tones. This show’s got garish coloring, garish forms, going every which direction. It’s definitely a more celebratory, exuberant approach.”
