INTIMACY--- a national and international juried exhibition  (See installation photos below)

Juried by ANDREA GREEN     Director of the Visiting Artists Program at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

Juror Andrea Green: "The selected works on view at ARC Gallery embody notions of intimacy exemplified through formal and conceptual approaches. The relationship between creator and the object, individual and the locale, and the lingering space between our innermost thoughts and outward expressions are explored. Scale, execution, and the innate qualities of chosen materials evoke a visceral response and solicit a contemplative pause. The contexts of the works convey social, personal, environmental, humorous, political, or even disturbing situations. These settings enable the pieces to provide new and sometimes unexpected ways of thinking about and experiencing intimacy."
