As I move through the sequence in the pages of a book, I forget and remember. As I turn the page, I cover over the last one; the book blinks. I must hold the previous page in my mind to order the next. I must move through the order to create the meaning and appreciate the form. Even if I open the book in the middle, or start from the end, or read it backwards, this remains true. In first, then, next, finally, Vox Populi Gallery’s 20th annual Juried Show curated by Lane Timothy Speidel, we are presented with steps; the works are ordered. Books, zines, photographs, weavings, animations, quilts, drawings, games, videos, and sculptures are ready for us. What can we gain from following the sequence? What can we find if we choose another route? How was this sequence decided? Does it matter? There’s only so much explanation to provide.
