This NY Art Exhibit Is Inspired by Lana Del Rey

Curator Eden Deering has organized a group exhibition titled “Hope is a dangerous thing” at P·P·O·W Gallery in New York, inspired by the final track of Lana Del Rey’s 2019 album *Norman F-cking Rockwell!*. The show features artists Kyle Dunn, Raque Ford, Paul Kopkau, Diane Severin Nguyen, Kayode Ojo, Marianna Simnett, and Robin F. Williams, who were encouraged to channel their most exaggerated, ambitious, and passionate selves. On view until July 11, the exhibition blends camp humor with emotive paintings, installations, and videos, exploring themes of vulnerability, performance, and the tension between genuine emotion and theatrical self-invention.
