Tuesday, October 18th : 6-7pm

Maryland Art Place
218 West Saratoga Street : Baltimore 21201

Ever dreamt of owning a church, warehouse, funeral home, boarded mansion, or corner bodega? Seeking a unique, multi-use property for your creative practice? Baltimore City real estate affords significant opportunities for artists and creative professionals, but the path to owning property is not clear-cut… especially if your income is unpredictable. guerilla / realty will be holding an informational session, I Want to Buy a Building, at Maryland Art Place that will cover property ownership geared towards artists.

You probably already have a few spaces on your mind, but so often real estate feels inaccessible. You are entitled to information about this process and we will demystify it for you. Learn what’s really involved when purchasing a building, and you will leave with the information and tools you need to start the process. All four agents will be present to share information and experience – Rachel Rabinowitz, David Tomasko, Tomeka Givens, and Makeda Phillander.

Baltimore is not your standard city with a typical real estate scene. The agents at guerilla / realty have experience working for artists and successfully pairing them with distinct homes and buildings in Baltimore City. Whether that means following auctions, searching out bank owned properties, or working with the client to find incentives, loans, and available grants, they can connect the dots and sort through the information. It is possible to take the step from renting to owning.

Wednesday, October 19th : 5-6:30pm

Julio Fine Arts
Loyola University Maryland : Baltimore 21210

The Julio Fine Arts Gallery, Loyola University Maryland presents Mary Opasik: Finding Meaning at the Loyola-Notre Dame Library Gallery. The exhibit is in conjunction with the Sehn Family artist’s residency at Loyola the week of Oct. 17th. Using low tech processes to combine cast-off furniture parts, aged metals, and hardware, Opasik re-interprets and honors the unique histories of each weathered component. Mary Opasik has been working with found object assemblage for 28 years. Raised in Baltimore city, her art is influenced by a society whose streets and woods are littered with discarded materials.

Opasik received a B.F.A degree from the Maryland Institute College of Art. Her art has been exhibited in The Huntsville Museum of Art (Alabama), Coast Gallery (Pebble Beach, CA), the American Craft Council (Baltimore, MD) and in galleries extensively. In May 2015, Mary Opasik was an Inside Zone artist-in-residence in Borsec, Transylvania, Romania. She was a grantee for The Alfred & Trafford Klots Residency Program at Rochefort-en-Terre (Brittany, France), the Fundacion Valparaiso (Spain) and the Vermont Studio Center (U.S.). The artist has participated in Maryland Art Place’s Critics’ and Residency Programs in 1991 & 1994 and has taught in visiting artist programs. Her work has been published in “Found Object Art” by Dorothy Spencer and “Found Object Art II” by Tina Skinner. Her public art collaborative project, UNDERWATER TREASURES is a found object and mosaic mural on the wall outside Elridge Library. Opasik is an ongoing participant of Nature Art in the Park in Baltimore County, MD.

<><><><><><><><><><>kja-95toLeslie Shellow: FIERCE BEAUTY – Reception + Artist Talk
Thursday, October 20th : 5-7pm

Julio Fine Arts
Loyola University Maryland : Baltimore 21210

The Julio Fine Arts Gallery at Loyola University Maryland presents FIERCE BEAUTY an installation of large, site-specific drawings by Leslie Shellow. Nature, overwhelmingly large or microscopically small, sometimes terrifyingly violent and often amazingly beautiful, is what inspires Leslie Shellow’s work. Shellow says: “Attraction, repulsion, contraction, expansion, growth, decay, beauty and ugliness are all aspects of Nature that are underscored in my work. These polarities function both internally (in the body) and externally (in the universe) in similar ways. Though these terms would tend to suggest both positive and negative forces working at odds with one another, every plant or animal, every weather pattern or atmospheric event, every bacteria or virus (whether it is nourishing or damaging to humans) follows its own programed behavioral path, and ultimately ends up living and dying just like we do.” Accompanying the installation is a new body of work on a smaller more intimate scale.

In 2015, Shellow was selected as a Sondheim Prize semi-finalist and exhibited at Arlington Arts Center in Arlington, VA.  She was awarded the Maryland State Arts Council Individual Artist Award for Works on Paper in 2010 and 2013 and 2016. She holds an MFA in Painting from Towson University, a BFA from The Maryland Institute College of Art and a BA in Education from the Evergreen State College. She currently teaches Drawing at the Maryland Institute College of Art. She has exhibited in such venues as The Delaware Center for Contemporary Art, the Silber Art Gallery at Goucher College, the King Street Art Gallery at Montgomery College, the National Institute of Health and Carrol Square Gallery in Washington DC.

Happy Hour: Wednesday, November 30 at 6-8 pm
Closing Reception: Sunday, December 4 at 5 pm

Power (I Know It When…) is the second exhibition by the current incarnation of Sparkplug, DCAC’s Artist Collective. Sparkplug’s nine members will share new paintings, sculpture, photography and installations exploring the dynamics, dimensions and implications of power (and empowerment) in its many forms. Political power. Physical power. Spiritual power. Technological power. Psychological, sensual and – pulsing throughout – creative power.

A phenomenon with strong and conflicting connotations, power can be admired, accessed, amassed, relinquished, feared or confronted. But it is not in the nature of power to be ignored. For the artists of Sparkplug, a sense of personal urgency and preoccupation with what it means to live in America, now, has guided their interrogations of power. The results are as timely as they are revelatory.

Saturday, October 22nd : 10am

Reginald F. Lewis Museum
830 East Pratt Street : Baltimore 21202

The Reginald F. Lewis Museum hosts the Teen Summit: Stop the Violence on October 22, 2016, 10am-3:30pm as a part of Free Fall Baltimore. The forum will provide safe and artistic spaces for youth to process the adversity they have faced in their lives, brainstorm solutions to prevent and reduce gun violence, and become change agents. The event is a related program to the museum’s newest exhibit, Kin Killin’ Kin.

“We saw an important need to gather youth as we host the exhibit Kin Killin’ Kin. The images in KKK expresses the artist James Pate’s concern for the heartbreaking deaths of young people due to gun violence. As a museum based in Baltimore, we are in a community where youth are continuously experiencing trauma from losing their loved ones or peers early in life. The summit lets the problem-solving and healing process begin with the youth themselves,” says Dr. Roni Jolley, Reginald F. Lewis Museum director of education.

Youth, ages 12-19, will participate in workshops on conflict resolution, skill-building and creative nonviolent expression through music, writing, visual arts, and media. The keynote presentation is writer and political activist, Kevin Powell. Activities include a youth panel moderated by WEAA radio host Farajii Muhammad and a culminating spoken word and hip hop performance by Speak Life Tour that promotes peace and non-violence. Workshop presenters include the Griot’s Eye, Art With A Heart, Kariz Kids Youth Enrichment Services, Warriors Entertainment LLC and Baltimore Peace by Piece.

This event is free and a continental breakfast and lunch will be provided. However, online registration is required at lewismuseum.org.

Saturday, October 22nd : 1pm

School 33 Art Center
1427 Light Street : Baltimore 21230

Join us on Saturday, October 22 at 1pm for a Gallery Talk with the artists of the Good and Plenty exhibition in the Main Gallery!

The artists present will include Darcie Book, Amy Hughes Braden, Matt Hollis, and Stephanie Williams. Come meet the artists, see the show and enjoy light refreshments!

‘Good and Plenty’, on view until October 29, 2016:
Most of us grew up with color televisions, computer monitors, and mobile phones whose screens emanate a myriad of colors seemingly not replicable in the natural world. Using them daily, how much do these devices influence us? Utilizing distinctive methods, the artists of GOOD AND PLENTY may be attempting to recreate the luminosity and hue from these glowing beacons. Matt Hollis constructs new worlds using manufactured materials, drawing viewers close by employing the clean vivid color of familiar objects and textures disguised through accumulation. Stephanie Williams’ installation features unnaturally bright colors in thread and fabric, at first obscuring the depiction of forcemeat and human body parts. Darcie Book uses dried acrylic house paint to create swirled, candy-like three-dimensional environments. Estee Fox and Amy Hughes Braden both work in heavily saturated colors, either with acrylic paint or ink on canvass or paper, beckoning viewers to stand close and discover every slash of color and it’s meaning. 

<><><><><><><><><><>zawjzhclConnie Imboden: A Retrospective – Opening Reception
Saturday, October 22nd : 6-9pm

Y:Art
3402 Gough Street : Baltimore 21224

Y:Art Gallery & Fine Gifts is pleased to announce the opening of our ninth exhibition, Connie Imboden : A Retrospective, with the work of world­renowned artist and photographer Connie Imboden. This is the first time the artist will be exhibiting her work in 13 years. The exhibition will feature an extensive body of Imboden’s photographs spanning over three decades, including a selection of well­known earlier black & white photographs as well as new color photographs that have never been exhibited. The exhibition will run from October 19 ­ November 26, 2016 with an opening reception held on Saturday, October 22, 2016, 6pm­9pm.

For more than 30 years, Connie Imboden has used photography to examine, distort, and redefine the human body. Using the reflective, and sometimes altering qualities of water and mirrors, her images create new forms that are at once mythological, archetypal, and expressive. They are beautiful yet simultaneously disturbing, elegant though often haunting. By so deeply investigating a subject we are so familiar with ­ the figure ­ her work reveals deeper meaning and insight to the human psyche. Seen through the camera and free from darkroom or computer enhancement, Imboden’s photographs display the strangeness of reality in an age of digital manipulation.

The Army That You Have: Closing Event and Performances

Saturday, October 22 from 7-10 pm

Performances by:

Matt Papich
Natalia Panfile
Graham Coreil-Allen
Jonathan Taube & Iman Djouini
Jaimes Mayhew with Asher Kolieboi and Alexa Meng
Brian Stansbury

Performances on the closing evening of The Army That You Have utilize dirt and survivalism in humorous, aggressive, ritualistic, obsessive, and mundane variations. These performances build on the metaphorical connotations of dirt as a material, through grunge, through dirty language, through bodies, via dirt’s nebulous definitions. Some works will be durational, and others will occur at specific moments throughout the evening. Saffron cigarettes, filthy speech, ice minerals, and scouring expand the context of the works in The Army That You Have.

“The Army That You Have”

“Q: Why do we soldiers have to dig through local landfills for pieces of scrap metal and compromised ballistic glass to up-armor our vehicles? And why don’t we have those resources readily available to us?”

“A: It isn’t a matter of money. It isn’t a matter on the part of the army of desire. It’s a matter of production and capability of doing it. As you know, ah, you go to war with the army you have – not the army you might want or wish to have at a later time. You can have all the armor in the world on a tank and it can (still) be blown up …”

– Donald Rumsfeld, December 2004

These realistic fantasies presented in “The Army That You Have” assert that we can, as a society at large, rethink and critique disciplinary boundaries of making, process, and product, and posit the hope for a more careful world. They use the most available and ubiquitous material at hand and underfoot: dirt. Collaborations with dirt through force, suggested force, and passivism – ridiculous, pluralistic, topical, explosive, meditative, and absurd – occupy suggested futures and self aware presents. Always maintaining an awareness of futility, this work presents making as an act of creative and personal survival. These artists use dirt as a literal and metaphorical pathway to utopian reconstruction of our received social values and our projected existence, using the material underneath our literal and metaphorical feet as a mechanism to suggest and occupy a greater future and a more responsible now.
