Both class times this week will be the photo-documentation workshop with Jonathan Ruth. He suggested that if you have a camera and tripod, bring them with you. Please try to be there on time so that we can utilize the entire 50 minute sessions.
The above images represent a transition that has been a lot of work. Some of you have been Herculean in your efforts to achieve a gallery space that will truly allow all your works to be seen in the best possible way. But, there is still a lot of details to follow through on before Saturday night's opening. Shawn listed some of those details in his Oncourse post from last Satudrday. They include:
- Finish taping
- Finish installing lighting
- Plan and hang artwork
- Installations
- Vinyl lettering
- Sandwich board
We also need to make sure that Randilyn's installation is complete. Her father has been doing the construction, but they may need help actually getting things put together before Saturday evening.
As we agreed, all work needs to be in the space on or before Friday. If for some reason you are not able to be there Friday, make sure your work is there. Those of you using pedestals, please have them at the space on Friday as well, you are responsible for getting them there. Please keep in mind that this is a group collaborative exhibit, not a series of solo exhibits. That means that all work must be in the space in order to design the entire exhibit, how one piece interacts with another, or how a grouping interacts with others and the space simultaneously. It would be good if everyone can be there for those decisions.
See you tomorrow.
Brian, please let me know when Signs Now has the vinyl ready for pick up. I can get that Tuesday or Thursday afternoon to have it ready for installation Friday!
ReplyDeleteBrian, I also sent out what other are to bring for the food via the email that Shawn sent.
ReplyDeletePlease keep in mind we'll need extra coolers for behind the counters and any chairs. I've got the 4 I have down there.
One thing I did forget to mention is Dan will have the ice bucket in that email. I'll get a handout typed out for Thursday reminding everyone what they need to bring and any incidentals that people should check on.
My framer is really pushing the deadline. "Thursday, or Friday morning at the latest." Gulp.
ReplyDeleteMore items for the list. We need labels and programs if we are going to have any.
ReplyDeleteLabels and programs for by the artwork?
ReplyDeleteZhalda and Katie, the vinyl lettering is ready to be picked up.
ReplyDeleteTo All: Send Wil your titles and media for each piece you are showing by tomorrow as he will be preparing tags for the exhibit. Please do not forget to do this as he will be designing/printing them consistently. Send them as a word.doc that he can copy/paste. If your showing four pieces, for example, send him your name, the title of the work, and the medium for each piece so he doesn't have to do the typing for you.
