EXHIBITION CALENDAR 2009-2010


September 10 - October 8
Patricia Johanson: "Framing The World as a Work of Art"

For over three decades, artist Patricia Johanson has insisted that art can heal the earth. She designs functioning works of art, creating infrastructures that reclaim impacted ecosystems. Her projects involve the design of unusual trails and landscaping features, reintroduce endangered plant and animal species, and create natural oxidation ponds and polishing pools for improving water quality.


October 22 - November 29
Christy Rupp: "The Lowgo Project: Guatemalan Textiles"

Christy Rupp is a social and political art activist. She declares, "Due to racism, greed, and war, the concept of individuality has passed its era of relevance. I declare myself obsolete as an individual and am now to be regarded as the brand Lowgo [a play on 'logo']. The featured product of the corporation is the making of messes. Our logos may be found primarily in the indigenous textiles of Guatemala where we seek to patent their tradition as our own intellectual property, paying homage to it while simultaneously defending ourselves against would-be competitors in court."


December 3 - January 24
