Matter, Rita Herzfeld

Tic Toc, Peter Arakawa

Peter Arakawa and Rita Herzfeld, are the real deal: artists' artists who work obsessively in various media and create works that leave the creatives among us inspired and itching to get back to our own work and try something new. Their work is on display at The Gallery at Mercer County Community College through October 20th, 2011, so you have 2 weeks left to catch a bit of their energy for yourself. Gallery hours are 11am - 3pm on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 9am - 3pm on Wednesdays and 6-8 Wed. evenings/ 3:30 - 5:30 pm Thursday afternoons. The Gallery is on the West Windsor campus CM building. Click here for directions.

BIG Show TONIGHT

Tonight is the opening reception for "The First 40..." -- a retrospective exhibition of works from Mercer County's permanent collection. About 170 works will be on display, spanning the 40 years since the County's Cultural and Heritage Commission was first established in 1970. Less than 1/2 of the work collected over the years is on display, and artists are inquiring: "Is my piece included?" Below is the list of artists included in THIS exhibit. We, of course, hope to do more in the future!

The exhibit takes place at ARTWORKS, 19 Everett Alley in Trenton, NJ, tonight, July 9, from 6 - 9 pm. (The terrific ARTWORKS center is located just off of Rte. 1 South (the Market Street exit), directly across Stockton Street from the state's DMV building. This is a "see and be seen event", so we hope to "see" you all there!

Artful Re-Use

CALL FOR ENTRIES

"Art From Found Objects"
A Juried Exhibition at the Monmouth Museum
September 12 - October 31, 2010


This exhibition focuses on artwork created from the undisguised, but often modified, use of common found objects that are not normally considered art, often because they already have a non-art function.


Found art derives its identity as "Art" from the designation placed upon it by the artist. "Trash Art" is included in this exhibition as works are primarily comprised from components that have been discarded and then found. 75% of the media used to create works for this exhibition must be from either discarded, reusable or found objects.

JUROR
The juror is Harriet Taub, Executive Director, Materials for the Arts (MFTA), NYC Department of Cultural Affairs.


ELIGIBILITY
Open to all artists world-wide age 18 and over. All artwork entered must be original creations by the artist and must have been completed within in the last five years.
SUBMISSION GUIDELINES
Submissions are limited to a maximum of TWO pieces. Artists are requested to submit digital images in JPEG format either via email or on a CD.
