(one-night only)
Come and celebrate the life and work of our dear sweet friend Rhonda Kuhlman! There are two ways to play: 1) you can participate in the exchange by creating a piece of work (no larger than 6 in. x 6 in.) for the one night exhibition; or 2) come to the public event during Luminaria! Either way you won't want to miss this show organized by RockPaperScissorsCollective! For more information and to participate contact diana@kerseyceramics.com.

Austin 2 for 1 at Unit B - we have two great events happening simultaneously.

Make-up, curated by Okay Mountain (Austin, TX)
Ben Aqua (Austin, TX)
Brian Bress (Los Angeles, CA)
Faith Gay (Austin, TX)

Make-Up is defined as a substance used to enhance the appearance of the body or the effect created by the application of such substances. The artists included in the exhibition all use makeup similarly as a tool of exaggeration, whether their subject is sculptural, environmental or the body. They share an oversaturated color palette, often times indulging in elaborate pattern, decoration, and costume. Characteristic to these works is an undeniable handmade aesthetic where tape, poster board, house paint and cardboard all make their way into the adornment of their respective subjects or characters. The worlds of make believe are alive and well here. This exhibition will continue thru May 1, 2010.

Circulatory System (Austin, TX)
One-night only: March 26, 6:30-10pm
Circulatory System will park in front of Unit B for one-night only and show a series of video works on their traveling school bus. Circulatory System is a Texas-based curatorial endeavor founded by Morgan Coy and Kate Watson in the summer of 2009. We strive to strengthen the dialogue between diverse communities across the state of Texas, with a specific interest in connecting Austin, Dallas, Houston and San Antonio. CircSystem will act as a catalyst for both local and regional conversation, connecting active artists, curators and writers with a particular passion for experimental video, performance and installation.

Hope to see you! CAM on!
