Did you join us for the opening for (un)Contained Vessels?
Did you get to enjoy some great work, a fantastic crowd, amazing food prepared by Roni Gross and friends, cocktails mixed by our multi-talented Executive Director Alexander Campos, and this summer's Featured Artist Project, Cynthia Thompson: Within the Veil?

Did you miss a great opening to a great show? Well, never fear, you can always join us for the panel discussion...

Please join us on Tuesday, August 7th at 6:30 pm for a panel discussion in conjunction with(un)Contained Vessels, the 2007 Artist Members Exhibition.

Artists Josh Harris, Tara O’Brien, Amee J. Pollack, Miriam Schaer and Miki Watanabe-Spiller will talk about their work. The work in the exhibition draws connections between book arts and the artistic practices of installation, sculpture, and/or conceptual art. The title of the exhibition refers to the notion that the container (box) is more than a mere holder of the item it houses; it becomes an active element in which it itself is a key component of the piece. Without its involvement the object would be unsuccessful as a whole.

Moderated by Alexander Campos, Executive Director

Reception to follow.

Both exhibitions on view until September 15, 2007.
