Calling all people of faith in West Philly:
come out and make a drawing this Saturday!
I am collecting drawings from people of all faith backgrounds ( including you!)
and incorporating them into a large-scale mixed-media work that will be permanently installed
in the main Cathedral space, with an opening celebration in May 2009.
Materials, instructions, and encouragement are provided, no drawing experience is required,
and you can spend just a few minutes making a drawing!
Remaining public drawing sessions for the project:
Saturday February 21 3:30-5:30 pm at the A-Space, 4722 Baltimore Ave
Sunday March 1 1-3 pm at the Philadelphia Cathedral, 38th and Chestnut
On view through April 12th
This is an experimental gallery exhibition that I have curated
as Art Program Manager at the Schuylkill Center for Environmental Education in Roxborough, Philadelphia.
I selected six artists and one artist team to create temporary artworks
with natural materials on the grounds of the Schuylkill Center,
with the guidelines that the artworks created must last no more than 24 hours.
The installations, sculptures, interventions, or events created were documented
by the artists using photography, video, sound, and text.
These documentations of the outdoor ephemeral artwork comprise the gallery exhibition.
