The multimedia installation highlights the crucial role that commentators—those who live narrate balls—play, while also chronicling their gradual, stylistic shifts between the 1990s and present day. The exhibition is co-curated by Jonovia Chase, Twiggy Pucci Garçon, and Michael Roberson, and organized in collaboration with <a href="https://artswestchester.org/" title="https://artswestchester.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">ArtsWestchester</a> and <a href="https://citylore.org/" title="https://citylore.org/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">City Lore</a>.I Think, I Draw, I Am is the largest New York solo exhibition by musician and artist Daniel Johnston (1961-2019). Curated by Lee Foster, co-owner of Electric Lady Studios and Curatorial Advisor for the Daniel Johnston Trust, the exhibition reveals the psychological depth and formal inventiveness of Johnston’s comic-inspired drawings. Comprising over 300 drawings, it attests to the abundance of material he made during his restlessly creative life.Learn more about our exhibitions <a href="https://pioneerworks.org/exhibitions" title="https://pioneerworks.org/exhibitions" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">here</a>.Exhibitions at Pioneer Works are made possible, in part, by public funds from the New York City Department of Cultural Affairs in Partnership with the City Council, as well as the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature.
