Brad Cooper Gallery is pleased to present “LANDSCAPE IN THE POSTMODERN”, a juried exhibition featuring thirty-five artists whose works were chosen from one-hundred submissions. The exhibit was selected by Chicago art critic, artist and educator Corey Postiglione. The intention of this exhibition is to enlarge the understanding of our culture and society through the reconsideration of landscape imagery produced today. The show includes painting, drawing, mixed media, printmaking and photography and will be on view from August 12, through October 7, 2006. AWARDS: A solo-exhibition ($8,000. value) will be the given for Best of Show. Second prize: $500.00, and two honorable mentions $100.00 each will also be awarded. The juror’s decisions are to be announced at the opening reception for the artists, Saturday evening, August 12, 2006, from 7 to 9 p.m. This event is free and open to the public.
“This exhibition, “Landscape
in the Postmodern” attempts to reconsider the implications of the
Landscape in our culture and provides a look at how artists perceive,
reconstruct, and distinguish the Landscape. An exhibition of this scope and
caliber is an invaluable opportunity for the public, collectors and artists
to expose themselves to artists working in the region, nationally, and
across the globe”. |
