Jane Goren

In my work, I use a series of visual and verbal double entendres to explore the role of latent content in a hyper-erotic yet hypocritical environment. The seriousness of my work is frequently punctuated with a visual pun. I am greatly influenced by cultural diversity which I seek out in my travels. Many of my images are a metaphor for transition and the duality of life and death, as well as our survival in an edgy world. Some artists, through their work, try to find the meaning of life. As for me, I don’t care what it means....I just want to keep it going!

Jane Goren

JANE GOREN has exhibited extensively throughout the United States and internationally as a veteran of the New York and Los Angeles art scenes for more than twenty years. Working in two and three dimensional forms, and with a variety of materials, Goren's work examines themes of disorientation, voyeurism and eroticism, and she often works with discarded materials, raising issues of materialism and relative value. In repurposing the detritus of her world she is able to create a healing experience of resurrection and transformation.

Her work appears in notable public (Mercedes Benz, Nat’l Public Library, Camel’s Garden Hotel Telluride, Ronald Reagan Presidential Library, Paris Bar,Berlin) and private (Fidel Castro) collections.
