Salvage Studio Visits

AnySquared and G-Studio had several recent studio visits with a few of the amazing area artists participating in our exciting SALVAGE exhibit upcoming in June at The Plant. We are looking forward to meeting with the other artists soon!

On Display June 21-October 19, 2014

Through paintings, photo-based works, and site-specific installations, the SALVAGE exhibition explores the metamorphosis of materials, objects, and/or concepts into a new means. Each exhibiting artist reinvents and reinterprets materials or concepts within their practice. All are stimulated by the notion of transformation. Each of artists’ works express varying visions of “Salvage” through conceptual methods, aesthetic tools, and/or through reuse of physical materials. visit exhibit page

The SALVAGE exhibit is presented by AnySquared Projects & G Studio in cooperation with The Plant.

*Firebread a masked performance by the International Art Group Ensemble at 5pm at the opening event.
