this post is dedicated to my main ladiez
(work by Tommy Doyle, Tom O’Brien, and Nick Vyssotsky)
A little over a month ago Sophia Belkin, Tom O’Brien, and I curated a house show loosely based around appropriation called LIP SYNC. The show featured work by Sophia Belkin, John Bohl, Lauren Brick, Tommy Doyle, Nicholas Gottlund, Ben Horns, Tom O’Brien, Kat Schneider, Kyle Tata, Nick Vyssotsky, and Suzanna Zak (that’s me). It turned out better than we even planned. Thank you to all the artists that participated and everyone that came out! The opening was a blasttttt!
We will continue having shows in the same space so be on the look out.
Attn: Baltimore
I’m assisting Open Space this year in organizing their annual publication & multiples fair which will be held Saturday April 28th and Sunday April 29th for 12 pm to 6 pm.
As part of the fair we would like to curate a selection of books to be on display in the library over the weekend. We are asking you, the Baltimore community to loan us your books for the weekend. The idea being to show those books that are most important to us…these are the books that you own. They can be artists books, art books, cook books, pornography, comics, novels, pamphlets, etc… It can literally be any book. It will, I imagine become a motley crew of books in different conditions, smells, shapes and sizes. In a town where there is a free “book thing”, this type of showcase seems especially fitting.
At this point we are only looking to find out who is into the idea and wants to participate. We don’t need your books until later in the spring. Carey Chiaia and I will do the final edit / selection. Each person will be asked to select one book to show. If your book is precious and you don’t want people touching it, we will have a long covered display case for housing those books. Otherwise, we will also have shelves installed so that people can look through the collection.
Please respond to me and / or Open Space as soon as possible, so that we can start to get a count of how many books will be included. The more the better. Feel free to email me with any questions. Please re-blog / email this to anyone you feel would be interested in loaning a book!!-N.G.
lemme see yr books, Baltimore!
I have some work up on Together.
Created by Maryanne Casasanta, “Together investigates forms of original language-based works, documents of performative gestures, installations or objects and works that stimulate ideas or questions about art and art production.” It’s quite an interesting project, featuring many thoughtful pieces. Check it out.
