The points you make about the the great...Hi Ursula,<br />The points you make about the the greater implications of this show (dialogue of contempt. art/craft, and the museum's exhibition of new media) are great. I agree and think this was the strongest part of the show as a whole. Overall, however, I found it to be a bit too contrived. <br />Yes, shows of this nature are inherently contrived (that is not always a bad thing), but there is a certain danger an artist faces when he or she is working to adhere to a theme when that "theme" for so many is actually a medium. Like Portlandia's, "Put a bird on it!" sketch, I call this, "Put a screen on it!". Too many new-media artists, or those who want to incorporate it into their work, focus on conveying electronic technology/media on an excruciatingly literal level.<br />The textiles at this show are quite nice in both concept and execution (though they were so similar they appeared to be by the same maker). <br />Thanks for keeping such a nice blog!<br />( : Lauren BacchusThe Shady Lamp Factoryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15933165279761234481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6137267603102029523.post-88703713120055790462012-02-06T08:01:51.649-05:002012-02-06T08:01:51.649-05:00the ocelot cat is amazing btw !

I was expecting paintings that sang color, and intead saw a show of contemporary abstract work that went from fiber work to studys in gray to texture with some color thrown in. I was very disappointed that the museum fail to list the names of the local artists on the web site or in any kind of printed guide with short bios and artist contact information. In fact I believe the only clue as to who the local artists are is the "collection of the artist" notations on the tags. This could have been a wonderful opportunity for the museum to showcase artists early on who might go down in the history books, not to mention acknowledging the artists who participated in the show. I asked at the front dest for a list of artists in the show, and there was a bit of dithering, what a concept that this might be available!! I thing this illustrates the disconnect between the institution and the artist!<br />FletaA Place for Artistshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11462558487189483267noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6137267603102029523.post-48321953238183751402011-08-04T18:03:21.912-04:002011-08-04T18:03:21.912-04:00We love her work, thanks for the post.We love her work, thanks for the post.Green Mountain Realtyhttp://www.ashevillencrealty.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6137267603102029523.post-29051425181553870962011-07-21T19:37:21.897-04:002011-07-21T19:37:21.897-04:00Ursula I'm new to Asheville and so want to be ...Ursula I'm new to Asheville and so want to be your friend/helper/art friend!
