Idol Worship

In honor of you, our idols, Smack Mellon is pleased to present Idol Worship, a group exhibition celebrating the ongoing cultural, social, and political significance of role model adoration as an essential survival strategy. In particular, self identified women are often overlooked as figures to be emulated, exempt from the label of “genius” so readily bestowed upon men. Curated by Emily Colucci, the exhibition brings together 27 artists in diverse disciplines that are engaging with and fawning over their women and women-identifying idols.
