In gallery A, gallery artist Lucy Slivinski
transforms the gallery into a fantastic lighted
landscape of her marvelous recycled material sculptural
works in INSPIRED TERRAIN.
Slivinski, a well-known Chicago sculptor, has created
pieces for public commissions in half a dozen states,
and has work in more than 45 corporate and private
collections. www.lucyslivinski.com
Guest Artist Carl Krull, from
Copenhagen, Denmark will show large floor drawings,
as well as some smaller works that feature video
of the process beside the actual paintings, in his
exhibition, DRAWN.
Krull, who is a son of two artists, is very involved
in the process of art making, and to that end, videotapes
much of the making of his art. Mr. Krull and his
work appear with the support of The Danish Arts
Agency. www.carlkrull.dk
In Project Room 1, gallery artist Jennifer
Mannebach creates enigma with PALIMPSEST,
sculptural pieces that find their strength via light
and shadows. These architectural pieces throw shadows
that belie their humble beginnings as masking tape
and graphite to gain almost monumental stature once
lit. Mannebach has shown widely in the US and received
numerous awards. www.jmannebach.com
Downstairs, Gallery B will house PAPER/INK/PRESS,
a celebration of printmaking by gallery artists
John Himmelfarb (Chicago) www.johnhimmelfarb.com,
Nancy Genn (San Francisco) www.nancygenn.com,
Carrie Iverson (Chicago) www.carrieiverson.net,
Adi Holzer (Denmark) www.adiholzer.com,
Alexandra Loewe (France) www.alexandraloewe.com,
and guest artist Shawn Stucky (Chicago)
www.shawnstucky.com.
The exhibit will explore the variety of techniques
and possibilities that printmaking offers.
In Project Room 2, Stephanie Dean
brings us MODERN GROCERIES.
At first glance, Dean’s images are photographic
facsimiles of Dutch still life paintings, but when
the viewer looks closer, the truth is revealed;
labels, plastic, flies, and assorted other signs
of current grocery practice. Dean makes several
points with this work, one being that is that food
is meaningful to the world on a variety of levels.
