Call for Artist Proposals : Dis-locations, BreadboardPhilly

Deadline for proposals February 14

This project will consider how cities can use mobile and locative art to regenerate areas that have been bypassed by new economies and flows of commerce and transit. It will also address issues of disconnection, asking who is able to connect and who is dislocated from public space.

A talk to think about. In creating work do you think about the same sense of context?

Snowflake Salon : Artist Conversation Sarah Bloom, photographer

Sunday, January 9, 2011

Join us in our cozy salon setting for a warm beverage and conversation with photographer Sarah Bloom. Her work is gritty and examines decay. You'll find yourself shocked by the risks taken to capture the images and inspired by the story they tell, and the questions they raise.

She has one photograph in the show but will bring a laptop to share other images. We hope some from her most recent trip to Detroit.

Snowflake Salon

It’s always great to see an artist in the studio working. Just love watching the process. The video is a bit strange here and there but the addition of pigment directly to a metal surface is intriguing. Enjoy. More about the artist >
