Levee Contemporary Celebrates 2nd Anniversary in Princeton, Wisconsin

Frank Juarez

Levee Contemporary celebrates year 2 in downtown Princeton, Wisconsin. Like many galleries throughout the world, they were faced with the uncertainty of keeping the doors open. Transitioning their art programming into the virtual world that we lived in since the start of the pandemic to now, has presented the opportunity for reinvention and adaption to continue to provide quality exhibitions to its collectors, patrons, artists, and community. To celebrate, the afternoon was full of music by local musicians, art, and great company.

Happy 2nd Anniversary, Levee Contemporary!

About MakeBelievable

featuring work by Andrew Blanchard and William Goodman

Fact or fiction, truth or yarns spun a’plenty? As summer is upon us and our daily habits begin to include the activities and people we have longed to return to, it’s hard not to consider the notions of putting such a traumatic time in our nation’s history to rest.

Post-pandemic life is not entirely scot free from the underlying issues that are rearing their ugly heads, both out-in-the-open and behind closed doors. With equal measures of child-like nostalgia as well as real-world complexity, Blanchard and Goodman’s combined bodies of work speak to the everso sought out race to explain, coverup, reveal, and/or pretend the validity of our own personal histories.

MakeBelievable is on view at Levee Contemporary through August 27, 2021.
