Through drawing, sculpture, assemblage, and collage, the artists in this engaging exhibition employ the art of inscription to address such diverse subjects as The Beatles, dinosaurs, the human form, and the mysteries of space.

Inscriptions focuses on aspects of drawing and script in two-and three-dimensional media. Line and demarcation convey the artistic hand of the featured artists and establish the structure and composition of the works on view. Gestural range, feeling, and ways of seeing are reflected in each artist’s personal style, which in some cases includes calligraphy or incorporates text.

The exhibition is curated by Miranda Putman. You can learn more by reading the press release, or a review posted 8/1/09 on Shotgun Review by Lani Asher.
