Schaller + Jaquish Art Projects is pleased to present
the first exhibition in a series of shows concerning themes
of Revolution and Renaissance. In this economy we believe
we see an important re-emerging attitude in the arts. The
gallery model is in flux, and there are more artists being
led by frugality and integrity, individualism, entrepreneurship
and a pioneering spirit.
Will we see a trend in vision making that is creative,
productive and nourishing or dark, nihilistic and foretelling
the end of the world? Will materials be recycled or up-cycled,
random or computer generated? What will tradition come
to mean?
We see political, spiritual and emotional ideas being explored,
immigrant dreams retold, and the reuse of discarded materials.
In this continuing dialogue, we are delighted to share
with you a collection of new and past work by a group of
very talented artists both emerging and established that
together, begins to explore a new American spirit.
