In Cincinnati this summer I was able to see Marking Time: Art in the Age of Mass Incarceration. This is artist Mark Loughney’s series of graphite and ink portraits of fellow inmates. “Pyrrhic Defeat” 2014-present. The title is perfect. I had to remind myself of the reference and the definition, as in, “Pyrrhic victory: a victory or goal achieved at too great a cost.” #markloughney
