AXIOM: Gallery Talk
@ Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art
2320 W Chicago Ave, Chicago, IL 60622
Opening Thursday, November 17th, from 6:30PM - 8:30PM
GALLERY TALK with curator Doug Stapleton and artists Frank Connet, Anne McGinn and Lialia Kuchma for Q&A. Thursday, November 17 at 6:30pm.
“Axiom” presents three artists rooted in craftsmanship who conceptually challenge the expectations of their discipline. “Axiom” addresses the commonalities that link their work, either through shared propositions as well as assumptions around the nature of craft. Frank Connet, Lialia Kuchma and Anne McGinn hold skill and materials in high regard and they acknowledge the historic narrative that has defined their discipline. Nevertheless, their thinking about their work pushes across the border of the imagined, across materials, into refined and distinctive artistic voices.
