A Panel Discussion and Closing Reception for SPRING SOLOS 2011
Thursday, June 2, 2011

Talk: 7:00 pm
Featuring all six SPRING SOLOS artists: Ailsa Staub, Jennifer Coster, Mindy Hirt, Mariah
Anne Johnson, Joshua Wade Smith, Leigh Davis
From Arlington Arts Center "On Thursday, June 2, AAC will host a panel discussion in our Tiffany Gallery with the six DC- and Baltimore-based artists featured in SPRING SOLOS 2011. While these artists were chosen for individual merit—and not because of any common themes in their work—they nonetheless share strikingly similar attitudes.
These SOLOS artists all present unusual, off-kilter takes on how gallery space should be used,and all draw the viewer’s attention through their installations to the structure of our building. Further, these artists all use related strategies for bridging the gaps between themselves, their work, and their audiences.
For TRAJECTORIES, we’ll ask our artists to explain these overlaps in their otherwise very dissimilar styles. We’ll also ask about their respective career trajectories as emerging artists showing site-specific pieces in non-profit spaces. How do the places in which these artists show and the audiences with whom they want to connect shape the art that they make?
This event is FREE and open to the public."
