My House Gallery invites you to attended its opening of PAPER JAM on Friday, September 19th from 5:30pm to 8:30pm.
The 8 1/2 by 11 inch piece of paper has become a fixture in our
contemporary culture. This standard image confronts us every day.
Containing advertisement, files, faxes, business contracts, photo
copies, and a myriad of information, we take in the information, often
over looking the spatial context within which it is contained. What if
our standard paper size was drastically different? What if it was half
of or doubled in size? How would this change our perception and
understanding of information? Paper Jam puts the 8 1/2 by 11 piece of
paper under the hand of the artist to allow them to expand or contract
their artistic understanding of the parameters of space presented.
PAPER JAM features:
Alison Nastasi
(and others)
I hope you can all make it out to this great opening! Visits by appointment.
Best,
Alex Gartelmann
