The I’ll Love You ‘Til The End of the World group show opened at Roq La Rue this past Friday to a large crowd which simultaneously got to see some great art and escaped the freezing temperatures outside. The title of the show is based upon a Nick Cave song of the same name, which finds the protagonist just after a bomb blast rocks a hotel as he speeds away, thanking his girl continually in the chorus. While some of the artists rendered the lyrics in a literal approach, others explored the themes of destruction and impending doom. We may have been spared the Mayan apocalypse, but we are left to wonder if humanities current path will be even worse…
Artists included Camille Rose Garcia, Femke Hiemstra, John Brophy (above), Martin Wittfooth, Jean-Pierre Roy, Marco Mazzoni, Scott Musgrove, Eric Fortune, Sail, Laurie Lee Brom, Sarah Dolby, Jane Kenoyer, and Nicola Verlato. Take a look at more opening photos below…
