CLARINET NOTES

Mixed media: "A Gifted Hand"

Home Of The Brave features several works comprised of assemblage, in which each object carries significance on its own, as well as in relation to other objects in the piece.

In addition to large assemblage works, the exhibition includes a number of mixed media sculptures and screen-printed works on panel. Themes include American values, military, fuel, corporate branding, production and consumption. Repetition, numerology, currency and measuring instruments like rulers convey concepts of value and the passage of time. Pop-culture references range from fashion, film, musical and historical figures such as Native American Comanche Chief Quanah Parker and the iconic American Astronaut.

Exhibition will run from September 10 to October 8, 2011.
