Featuring work by mixed roots visual artist Laura Kina.
Opening Reception: Friday, June 14, 5:00 – 7:00 pm
Exhibit runs June 14-August 10, 2013
Gallery Hours: Monday – Saturday 10:00 a.m. – 6:00 p.m.This exhibition considers the expressive potential of image and language through signage: how do artists use the visual and physical characteristics of signage, along with its often site specific cultural currency, to create realms of poetic or political meaning in public space or the gallery? With a focus on forms of permanent and ephemeral signage this exhibition will consider artists’ billboards, marquees, street signs, banners and posters among other forms of infrastructural signage.
