Edwynn Houk Gallery is pleased to present I, Narcissus, an exhibition of new work by Ron
Norsworthy that will be the artist’s first with the gallery after representation was announced in 2023. Please join us for the opening reception on Thursday, November 14 from 6-8pm.
The exhibition consists of 11 new works, in which Norsworthy uses the myth of Echo and Narcissus as a thematic point , reinterpreting the myth’s central narrative thread through a contemporary sensibility. Centered around Norsworthy’s long standing interest in spatial poetics, narrative and allegory, the works provide an extended reflection on both the personal experience and social construction of beauty, while also reconsidering narcissism as a virtue of self-love.
