Ivy Brown Gallery is pleased to present What do I do with all this love, a deeply personal new exhibition by Valerie Huhn.

This body of work revisits a question Huhn first asked herself more than twenty-five years ago, when a move from New York City to San Francisco — and an unexpected breakup — left her wondering what to do with all the love she still carried. A Rilke quote gifted to her then urged patience and trust in life’s unanswered questions.

Decades later, standing in her studio surrounded by fingerprinted mylar sheets casting flickering reflections, she realized she was finally living her way into an answer — through art.

This show traces her journey from escaping a psychiatric hospital in Pennsylvania to the freedom she found in New York’s creative community, and the hard-earned understanding that freedom and love must be nurtured and protected.

What do I do with all this love is both a question and a testament to the enduring power of holding, releasing, and transforming love.
