R|Age Opening Reception
R|Age asks what a life is worth after youth takes back its promises and society turns away from what it no longer values.
Abbozzo Gallery is proud to present R|Age by Richard A. Jacobson, a bold and thought-provoking solo exhibition that examines aging, memory, and the societal obsession with youth. Opening on March 6, 2026, this collection of oil paintings, sculptures, and interactive works invites the viewer to confront the complexities of growing older in a world that often rejects the wisdom and beauty that comes with age.
Through a series of striking pieces, including Waltz of Ashes, Remembering Her Forgetting, and Bones of the Fathers, R|Age challenges the conventional view of aging as a decline, instead celebrating it as an integral part of the human experience. The exhibition asks poignant questions: What do we hold on to as time slips away? What memories and identities do we leave behind as we grow older?
Richard's work defies societal expectations and invites viewers to reflect on their own perceptions of age and time. The exhibition offers a space for conversation, allowing visitors to engage deeply with their own personal experiences of aging and memory.
