Minus: An Exhibition features emerging artists from across the country and from several different minority communities, including Black, Latino, Asian and LGBT. The combination of these communities verges on the majority. Works will be of multiple mediums, including painting, sculpture, video installation, performance and photography, and deal with issues of identity: gender, sexuality, culture and the body.

The opening reception will take place on June 26, 2009, from 7pm to 9pm, and will run though July 11, 2009. The studio will be open for your viewing pleasure on June 27 and July 11 from 12pm to 3pm, and for Studioplex’s Second Wednesdays on July 8, 6pm to 8pm. Viewings on all other days are by appointment.

The show’s title, “Minus,” reflects the under-representation of minorities and women in the art world. This group exhibition is designed to manifest the influence of the “minority” on contemporary culture and on the art world.

Split Level Exhibition

Split Level Exhibition

Underground Atlanta A Group Show

Date:	Friday, May 29, 2009
Time:	7:00pm - 9:00pm
Location:	Underground Atlanta
Street:	60 Upper Alabama Street

In our exciting time of political and social change, a group of Generation-X artists leave their apathy behind in order to make provocative, artistic statements. Gen-X is often called generation with little say. However, this group distinguishes itself by revealing a wide open sense of consciousness. Diverse in culture, perspective and in media, these emerging artists address key issues that permeate popular culture today. Notions of femininity, masculinity, sexuality, commercialism and a wide range of body politics are explored through painting, printmaking and sculpture. All of the work selected is vibrant and expressive. Here Gen- X’ers speak freely from their hearts, minds and sometimes their labidos. Viewers may experience some of the work as sensual, provocative and at times flirtatious. As special feature, this show includes two live painting performances on June fourth. Danny Paulete, a seasoned climber will be ascending the Peach tower of urban Atlanta while painting on canvas. His work explores primal behavior and instinct in response to physically challenging situations. The second performance, entitled, Dancing’, Swingin’ and Getting’ Our Paint On,” Deidra Tyree accompanied by other artists and musicians will be action-painting onto 3 dancers and letting the paint drip at will onto a large canvas below. On May 29, 2009, all ages and persuasions are invited to the opening reception of Split Level of Consciousness.
