Sunday 08.01.2010 through Sunday 08.29.2010 Crystal Cawley's new work combines her interest in the form and function of clothing with the possibilities of paper. "I savor the challenge of translating the technical details and methods of working with fabric to working with paper. I also love reusing things—all of these garments are made of materials that used to be something else. Family Tree Apron is made of pages from a 1960s parenting book called Mothercraft. I used chopped up art postcards collected from museums and galleries or sent to me by friends for Cold Comfort Coat, and Love Letter Sweater is knitted and woven from letters sent to me by my partner when we didn’t live in the same state." |

Friday 05.07.2010 through Monday 05.31.2010 Andy Rosen's new work Loaded will occupy our front window for the month of May. "I know that fantasy is probably a human construct to make the world and all its chaos easier to swallow. But what if escapism is our best quality? What if making stuff up is the best thing we can do for ourselves, our way to escape our biology, if only for a moment? What I make is a kind of addendum to the toys and model arrangements of my boyhood. I intend to create objects that feel like something I’ve seen in my dreams: full of worry and wonder. Sometimes they are inspired by other stories or tales, sometimes by actual events and sometimes I forget which is which." |

Thursday 04.01.2010 through Friday 04.30.2010 This month, Spindleworks and YES Art Works collaborate to highlight the work of two talented artists who elevate everyday structures and happenings to another plane entirely. For Richard Moore of Litchfield, it’s a literal raising of his eyes to observe and capture all that resides overhead: telephone poles, ceiling tiles, and contrail lines. Dynamic pen and ink lines carefully pulled from one edge of the page to the other draw the viewer into a tense, yet meditative, space. For Tom Ridlon of Alfred, certain buildings and vehicles he passes each day on the way to his studio in Brunswick etch into his mind. With no drawing, plan, or photo, Tom creates meticulous architectural models from the most basic of supplies—cardboard and construction paper, transforming a simple trailer home into a miniature castle. This month SPACE gallery’s window gallery features a selection of Tom’s models and Richard’s telephone pole drawings, bringing attention and new perspective to aspects of American daily life. |

Friday 01.09.2009 through Saturday 02.21.2009 Kyle Downs: "My work focuses heavily on form, construction, and the preservation of raw materials. In my experimental, mad scientific-state I treat each piece with a simple system; exploration, extrapolation, transformation. Host essentially is the parasitic transformation of plywood that feeds off of harsh living conditions. Suffocated by white walls, bright lights, and its current glass chamber, Host remarkably remains resilient in this introduced environment." |

Thursday 06.28.2007 through Thursday 08.09.2007 Greta Bank's Clearance: The Four Horsemen was inspired by mankind’s path of destruction. The Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: The False Leader, War, Famine and Plague are individually showcased within antique giltwood chairs accompanied by matching upholstered panels. Nearly fifty separate narratives flood the panels’ Baroque patterning, using scatological metaphor taken from topical events and problems that threaten our existence. Classical iconography, merged with popular culture, plays out a number of sad truths.
