s-EYE-nce:
a
science/visual arts fusion
Lots of the
visuals that come out of scientific inquiry, like photomicrographs of
the
mouthparts of tiny insects or traces of elementary particles like
quarks, are both beautiful and compelling. Some artists are
using and modifying such
images; others are using the techniques (recording transformations),
processes
(such as repeating sequences and patterns), and methods (observation
and
replication) of science to inform their art. Artists are encouraged to
explore
the evolution and discoveries of science from all sides: existing and
emerging
sciences and fantastical takes on science. Cool gadgets and equipment
get bonus
points!
Show Dates:
June 5
– July 7, 2012
Deadline:
April 20,
2012
Off
the Wall
This main gallery show will pulse with a wide variety of bold,
sculptural works made from wire, paper, fabric, stainless steel, fiber,
duct tape and more - hanging from the ceilings and walls, and standing
on pedestals around the floor. There will be a mix of abstract forms
and figures - animals, insects and people. The concept behind the
sculptures should emphasize motion, action, and gesture. (SPA has an
annual stone sculpture show: this exhibit would invite 3-D work from
artists in other media.)
Show Dates:
July 17 – Sept. 8, 2012
Deadline: June
8, 2012
Rock Solid
This outstanding annual show showcases stone sculptures and assemblages
by area artisans. While the emphasis is sculptural works, the
show includes a small number of paintings and other works that depict
the beautiful qualities of stone.
Show Dates:
September 25 – November 3, 2012
Deadline: August 10,
2012
