Helene Appel: "The Tiresome Truth" - ASC Gallery
In polarised times it seems particularly important to maintain voices of subtlety and doubt.  
‘The Tiresome Truth’ brings together work by three artists who demonstrate different approaches to 
the idea of trying to make truthful art, but who nevertheless all explore areas of uncertainty, and 
aren’t afraid to pose more questions than they answer.
 
Trying to be ’truthful’ as an artist can be problematic.  Is a sculpture somehow more honest than a painting? 
Is an illusionistic painting any more or less 'real' than a non-objective one? Does a found object seem 
somehow more authentic than something imagined or invented? Or must all art be a form of untruth?
