PROJECTIONS: A Survey of Wall-based Sculpture and Selections from the 2007 International Drawing Annual Curated by Jason Franz Manifest Creative Research Gallery and Drawing Center March 7 - April 4, 2008 Projections: A Survey of Wall-based Sculpture -main gallery What happens in a gallery when sculpture is denied its traditional place on the floor or a pedestal? Manifest wanted to know... Projections invited artists to submit works of art that are clearly sculptural, with three-dimensional space a key element, but which are not in any way floor (or pedestal) based. Works included in the exhibit are either wall or ceiling mounted. This concept pushes the boundaries of the general expectation regarding the weightiness of sculptures, so often seen as being earth-bound and gravity defined. 130 artists from 33 states and 8 countries submitted 260 works to this exhibit. The final selection brings 11 works by 9 artists from nine states to Cincinnati. The exhibit promises to be different from any presented at Manifest to-date, with a wide variety of approaches to the theme, by a powerful assembly of national artists. Projections offers a gallery experience not to be missed! Manifest is proud to present works by: Kristina Arnold (Bowling Green, Kentucky) Kevin Ewing (Athens, Ohio) Shane Harris (Champaign, Illinois) Richard Herzog (Tulsa, Oklahoma) Adrienne Outlaw (Nashville, Tennessee) Trish Ramsay (Columbus, Georgia) Eric Troffkin (St. Louis, Missouri) Jonathan Whitfill (Lubbock, Texas) Glenn Williams (Ankeny, Iowa) Selections from the 2007 International Drawing Annual - drawing room Selections from the International Drawing Annual will be the third annual presentation of this exhibit, featuring ten handpicked works representing eight of the 48 finalists for the Third Annual iNDA exhibit-in-print competition. The exhibit is offered as a celebratory first-hand sneak preview of a sampling of the iNDA publication which itself will be available in June, and will be designed by Matt Wizinsky. Manifest received a staggering 750 entires from a record number of artists and countries for this year's annual. The International Drawing Annual publication was conceived as an extension of Manifest's Drawing Center mission to promote, feature, and explore drawing as a rich and culturally significant art form through the pursuit of scholarly activities. The goal of the International Drawing Annual is to support the recognition, documentation, and publication of excellent, current, and relevant works of drawing in the United States and beyond. All works included in each annual were made within the three years leading up to its publication. The artists included in the upcoming iNDA 2007 publication are listed here. (http://www.manifestgallery.org/nda/nda2007) Artists with works included in the Selections exhibit include: Dale Clifford (Atlanta, Georgia) Heidi Jensen (Jacksonville Beach, Florida) Soomin Jung (San Antonio, Texas) David Mazure (Mars Hill, North Carolina) Douglas Miller (Louisville, Kentucky) Stephen Mishol (Lowell, Massachusetts) Reiner (San Francisco, California) Doug Russell (Laramie, Wyoming) Manifest is funded in part by: The City of Cincinnati, The Carol Ann and Ralph V. Haile, Jr./U.S. Bank Foundation, the Ohio Arts Council, the Fine Arts Fund, the Greater Cincinnati Foundation, and the NLT Foundation. |
