Gallery A: Mark Porter Mark Porter's kinetic sculpture work in steel, wood, rubber, and metal are fashioned from home appliances and everyday objects. They are named and numbered as 'implements' performing absurd repetitive tasks as automated art making machines. Gallery B: Granite Amit Granite Amit, a licensed clinical professional art therapist and member of ARC Gallery in Chicago presents her recent work in painting and installation. Her work layers text, line drawings, and images in creating her own art historical mythology of 'As-if-ism.' Gallery C: Bonnie Klehr A picture is worth 1,000 words For the past six years, fiber artist Klehr has been examining aphorisms and famous quotes for their role in human life. These motherly lectures of endless cures, not unlike superstitions or voodo, define the personality of the family and individual. Klehr presents these texts in the form of embroidered cloth, endowing the text with physicality and weight and hanging the words vertically, shrouding their meaning like a veil over the face of a woman. Recent work presents embroidered images combines with the text and a large embroidered work of 1,000 words. Gallery D: Judy Koon Judy Koon is a faculty member in the Painting department of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. She has been a member of Artemisia Gallery since 1995. Koon's oil paintings present rich verdant landscape views that come alive through light that seems to emerge from beneath the canvas itself. *Gallery web site address http://www.enteract.com/~artemisi For additional information and press packets, call the gallery at (312) 226-7323 or email [email protected] _______________________________________________ Nettime-bold mailing list [email protected] http://www.nettime.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/nettime-bold
