If you’ve seen as many art exhibitions on a regular basis as I have over the years, you can become both jaded and numbed. And then something comes along and it’s fresh enough or strange enough to grab you by the collar. Latencies, a collaborative exhibition on view at Big Car Gallery and Galerie Penumbra, is both: It’s fresh, it’s strange and it’s over-stimulating, in a good way.

In the spirit of its founding intentions, Big Car has teemed up with Galerie Penumbra — both housed in the Murphy Art Center in Fountain Square — to present this collaborative art show as an experimental effort, thematically connected, in this case, by the medium of collage as well as the concept Latencies.
