nomadic curatorial projects
Exhibition Dates: 30 July – 21 August, 2010
You are invited to “Three-by-Six (3×6),” our summer media arts event in Miami, Florida; a cross between an art show and a film festival. Our events will feature six curated short video, film, performance, sound, or other time-based combination works. We will provide a forum for, and build a community of participation, review, and response for both audience and practitioner.
Exhibition Dates: 11 June – 10 July, 2010
RE/PRODUCING COMPLEXITY at Artlab33 | Art Space features artists Raúl Perdomo and Liz Atzberger. Both artist’s paintings and drawings take a similar route to reach their goals in a field of rich textures and enveloped in swirls of color.
“Re/producing Complexity” refers to Complexity Theory and Chaos Theory, systems that are too complex to accurately predict their future, but nevertheless exhibit underlying patterns that can help us cope in an increasingly complex world. Obviously, visual representations are not the same as working with mathematical computations. However, both artists continue a longstanding tradition of exploration and experimentation with abstract phenomena as the route to their ends.

This work on mylar was exhibited at the Hollywood Art and Culture Center in 2009. Mr. Perdomo recently spoke about the difficulty of working on mylar, although this piece is very beautifully crated.

Karla Walter finds working with clay allows her a spontaneity through which conception can take form and, when executed creates a permanence of that idea and object. She finds clay to be expressive, challenging and rewarding, as well as, a never ending learning experience. Through the process of Raku firing, Karla Walter has been influenced with the use of symbols impressed into clay, creating unique pieces of art for the neck. Her pieces incorporate sterling silver findings and freshwater pearls on selective pieces.
