Cottage Industry at the Contemporary Museum - Photos
 Contemporary Museum Gets Down to Business with Cottage Industry Exhibition features six entrepreneurial artists from June 1 to August 24, 2008.    Edible Estates   Cottage Industry, an exhibition exploring the artist as entrepreneur, will open at the Contemporary Museum on June 1, 2008. Co-curated by the Contemporary’s Executive Director Irene Hofmann and guest curator Kristin Chambers, the exhibition will feature six artists and artist collaboratives that have merged art with business by creating small shops, business ventures, and alternative cultural institutions. The exhibit will be open through August 24, 2008.   Jema  The Tract House “The Contemporary Museum has long been engaged in exploring the boundaries of art and moving the experience of art into our neighborhoods and our everyday lives,” said Hofmann. “With projects that mingle art, ideas, commerce, and community, the artists in Cottage Industry re-frame the site of creative exploration and bring the experience of art into the realm of the marketplace and social relations.” Cottage Industry will be presented at the Contemporary Museum’s 100 West Centre Street gallery space as well as at two off-site locations in Baltimore.  Smockshop  Volksboutique Public Programs and Cottage Industry Publication: The Contemporary Museum will host a series of seminars and activities to accompany Cottage Industry, including a “smocking workshop” for visitors to create their own garments; a gardening seminar with expert advice from master gardeners; and an entrepreneurship workshop with useful advice for small business owners. Cottage Industry will be accompanied by an 80-page full-color catalogue designed by Orange Element. The Cottage Industry catalogue will be available at the Contemporary Museum in June and at www.lulu.com.  Cottage Industry will be on display at the Contemporary Museum and throughout Baltimore from June 1 – August 24, 2008. The Contemporary Museum is located at 100 West Centre St., in Baltimore’s Mt. Vernon Cultural District. Museum hours are noon to 5 p.m. Wednesday through Sunday. For more information on the exhibit and the Contemporary, visit www.contemporary.org. |

Light Show Screenings at the Contemporary Museum
 "Light Show" Film Screenings Thursday, April 24, 2008 7 - 8:30 p.m. Doors open at 6:30 Contemporary Museum 100 West Centre Street Baltimore, Maryland The Contemporary Museum and Stateless Cinema will present six short, experimental films that explore light and darkness, both literal and emotional, in Light Show on Thursday, April 24. Taking the Contemporary Museum's current exhibition Double Take: The Poetics of Illusion and Light as a point of inspiration, Stateless Cinema has organized this program of films and videos by artists, including New York Near Sleep for Saskia by Peter Hutton, Private Movies by Naomi Uman, Tuareg by Bruce Checefsky, Observando El Cielo by Jeanne Liotta, [B]lack by Kenyatta Forbes, and Alice Sees the Light by Ariana Gerstein. The films show subtle changes of light and landscape in New York; the shadows cast by lace, artificial silk flowers, plants and trees; the impact of commercial security lighting on an artist's environment; and celestial recordings examining how natural and artificial light effect emotions and perceptions of different objects, places, and situations. Admission to Light Show is $5, $3 for students with college ID. |
