ARTIST TALK
July 11, 6 PM
In collaboration with The Center for Emerging Visual Artists, 110 CHURCH gallery is pleased to present Josette Urso: Here and Then a Center for Emerging Visual Artists (CFEVA) Alumni Solo Exhibition
Stories pairs handmade artist books by Elena Bouvier and bottled drawings by Len Cowgill. Their work is intimate — visualizations of openness and containment. Both artists tell stories in a poetic visual shorthand that encourages an imaginative shared experience.
Elena Bouvier
I came to book arts the long way around, through photography.
Shine is affirming, celebratory, in the moment, and reassuring. In this solo show, printmaker Rebecca Gilbert builds narratives through natural imagery. We pause in the beauty that surrounds us — we rethink to what we attach value. Exploring the concept of trial and error, Gilbert considers the experiment the real treasure. Shine examines the value in process.
A talk with Yaddo President Elaina Richardson.
The John S. and James L. Knight Foundation recently awarded Yaddo a major grant to fund residencies for artists from their eight key cities, including Akron. This presentation for our local artists is part of a national effort by Yaddo to identify and recruit eight of the highest-level talented artists from those cities, with special efforts dedicated to underrepresented communities and emerging art forms.

Small work allows the experience of getting up close and personal with the artwork. The size of the artwork forces one to go in and really look. "Smaller beckons: get close, touch, relate - they inspire a reduction of the psychic distance between one thing and another; between people and things"
- from the book and philosophy: "Wabi Sabi"
Heavybubble websites for artists is thrilled to announce that we will be presenting our Snowflake Salon again this year. Instead of making it an annual event it will be a biennial. Take a look at the catalog of the wonderful show we had back in 2010.
