Hey all,
My piece "Psychological Methods of Sell: A Memorial Day Bicycle Tour of Kenilworth, IL" is going to be installed as a part of GARDENfresh's "Spirit of the Age" show opening this Friday.
Come check it out!
Event date: Friday May 30th, 2008
Artist reception Friday May 30th 6 - 10pm
Exhibition continues through June 28th
GARDENfresh Gallery is pleased to finish out the season with a dramatic show by three of its core members. Husband and wife team Burtonwood & Holmes are paired with artist Alain Douglas Park and each offer their unique take on war, history, consumerism, and the act of making. Park is best known for his large-scale literary inspired paper maché work that addresses the origins of meaning and the worth/futility of expression. For this exhibition, Park continues this drive and adds large scale drawings and murals of overlaid images. In the run up to the Iraq war, artists Holly Holmes and Tom Burtonwood began a body of work to protest the upcoming conflict and explore the wider implications of materiel culture. B & H have invited over 20 Chicago artists to participate in "Spirit of the Age," a survey of art practice by a nation at war.
