I'm with Stupid; Works by Bruce Tapola, Melba Price, and Oakley Price Tapola

We’d wager there are a few families left who prefer slide shows or Super-8 screenings to home videos. But how many do you know who create art exhibitions celebrating their life together? Melba Price, Bruce Tapola, and their daughter Oakley did so in 1993 at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts; eleven years later, it’s time for another installment, this time at the south side hotspot known as SooVAC. How to draw the familial connections between Bruce’s playful and sometimes acerbic takes on pop culture and pop art, Melba’s portraits with a gravitas harking back to early Renaissance painters, and Oakley’s saucy indie-kid cartoons? We’ll leave that up to them. We weren’t able to see their exhibit before press time, but it’s bound to be fun. Bring the whole fam damily! 2640 Lyndale Ave. S.,
