A Deborah Colton Gallery exhibition plays with words

Unlike some works in the show, this 2002 offering by Gary Sweeney is visually interesting.

There are plenty of other interesting pieces in the show, including some by celeb artists such as Yoko Ono and Ed Ruscha, but description can only get us so far. Every work in "Word" draws on common language, which we all share -- that's how it works -- but words also have private meanings, and ultimately each piece must be experienced on an individual level. Such is perception.

Not to, you know, imply that reading art reviews is a waste of time.
