"Painter Darren Waterston's installation Filthy Lucre--the centerpiece of Uncertain Beauty--is a contemporary re-imagining of James McNeill Whistler's 1876 decorative masterpiece Harmony in Blue and Gold: The Peacock Room. Waterston became fascinated with The Peacock Room both for its unrivaled union of painting and architecture and for its dramatic story of patronage and artistic ego."--Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art's website.
