FIXATION

  

OPENING: Friday, April 18 from 7 - 10pm
SECOND FLOOR GALLERY

 

Fixation is an exhibition and a publication of art and poetry focused on the physical/psychological preoccupation or obsession over an object or subject. The exhibition explores the subject of fixation as a continuos and elusive preoccupation of our human experience through written and visual art. The curators invited 24 artists and 17 poets to create works based on their understanding and perception of the theme of fixation. The result is a group exhibition including painting, drawing, photography and poetry. Each work brings light to the artist's own preoccupations unearthed by his/her personal fixations. Fixation takes place in a gallery setting, print and digital formats.

 

The exhibition is curated by Sergio Gomez of Chicago's Zhou B Art Center (www.zhoubartcenter.com) and Didi Menendez of PoetsArtists Magazine (www.poetsandartists.com).

Things Forgotten... Remembered

  

OPENING: Friday, April 18 from 7 - 10pm
SECOND FLOOR GALLERY

 

Having been an avid collector of many things since childhood, it is not surprising that Joe Milosevich's visual work would revolve around the hunting and gathering of objects that inspire him. The objects he collects are very often quite ordinary or discarded...forgotten. Within his assemblages, these objects are celebrated and elevated...remembered. The vintage objects which dominate the exhibition are transformed into glorious trophies, powerful icons, and magical talismans with autobiographical origins that tap into a shared contemporary consciousness.
