Currently on view at Jancar Jones, Los Angeles is “A Frayed Knot,” an exhibition of new work by Cameron Crone, David Gilbert, and Samantha Roth, organized in collaboration with Cole Akers. Although their studio practices are distinct from each other, Crone, Gilbert, and Roth’s work share certain humorous qualities, including punning titles and an often perverse engagement with material. For more than a year, the artists have met regularly to discuss their interests in art and humor; the meetings take a variety of forms: group critique, reading group, hangout. The present exhibition—comprising drawing, sculpture, and photography—embodies their ongoing conversation.
