Girl's Club Presents Artists In Action! for 2014

From March through June, 2014.

Part of Artists In Action! series of artist talks and Limited Edition Multiples by contemporary female artists. Four presentations at Girls’ Club by prominent local female artists will offer a glimpse into their unique methods of artmaking. In conjunction with the exhibition I think it’s in my head, the four presenting artists are all featured artists working with diverse media.  They will share their inspirations, career paths and ‘ah hah!’ moments with the public. Curated by artist team Tasha and Monica Lopez de Victoria, known as the TM Sisters, I think it’s in my head is a selection of fifty works from the collection of Francie Bishop Good and David Horvitz that inspire contemplation of the esoteric and the extra-sensory. The works on view come in a diverse range of media and techniques: the title of the exhibition is derived from a pink and blue neon text by British artist Tracey Emin.

Artists in Action! artists Harumi Abe, AdrienneRose Gionta, Jiae Hwang, Dinorah de Jesús Rodriguez each construct their works using unique processes that range from the handmade (analog) to the high tech (digital). Abe will share her approach to painting emotionally loaded landscapes and interiors. Gionta manipulates digital imagery to comment on identity. Hwang weaves together diverse media, from sculpture and murals to video and digital animation to create enigmatic works. Rodriguez alters found 16mm film footage by scratching, coloring, bleaching and inserting subliminal imagery and sound.

At each event, Girls’ Club will release an affordably priced limited edition multiple produced by the artists for sale to the public. These multiples are all priced under $100 and range in object and function. Each object is created in collaboration with Girls’ Club and is informed by the artists’ interests.
