SPACES EVENTS

Shows closing this Friday, July 17
Don't forget: We're open late on Friday until 7 p.m.!

Main / Internal Compasses
Internal Compasses features visual thinkers who map, code, and catalog experiences and information, then systematically arrange the material evidence according to personal internal strategies. This exhibition takes viewers on a journey through imagination and inquiry by way of pattern and process.

SWAP / Efrat Klipshtien/ Red Winged Black Bird
During her nine-week residency in Cleveland, Israeli artist Efrat Klipshtien created Red Winged Black Bird, a large-scale installation using day-to-day household supplies. The artist stages a dream-like landscape: an imaginary world that pushes the boundaries between artificial and organic.

SPACELab / Evan Larson /
Permeability, Transformation and the Neutral
Using techniques such as plaster carving, mold-making, and woodworking, Evan Larson manipulates the existing structures within the gallery to create a seemingly organic and ephemeral space of neutrality between the object, viewer, and space.

Navigating through the alien world of contemporary art: SPACES is headed to The Sculpture Center (1834 E. 123rd St, Cleveland, Oh 44106) this Saturday to fearlessly investigate and discuss After the Pedestal, the 5th Annual of Smaller Sculpture from the Region. No Holds Barred!

Curator of Contemporary Art at The Cleveland Museum of Art Paola Morsiani juried an exhibition comprised of 21 artworks by 16 artists from the region. The three-dimensional works, composed of materials ranging from the ready-made to tradional media used in innovative ways, cover and challenge notions of politics, the environment, and the use of space.
