DETROIT, MICHIGAN.-
Detroit's Museum of New Art (MONA) presents its second
exhibition exploring regional artists and their artwork. DETROIT
NOW, the first such exhibition was conceived in February of 2002.
At that time, the museum sought to coordinate with regional
galleries in showcasing the best and brightest of new, young
talent working in the metropolitan area.
The idea was to create a museum that would work in a concerted
effort with the galleries of the region: in order to create, in
theory, an exhibition without walls.
The idea was also to create a sort of biennial out of it all,
since the list of such young talent is always refreshing itself.
That show was an enormous success in 2003.
Now, it is 2005 and the Museum of New Art is proud to announce it
is continuing the success of that first endeavor with its second
installment of DETROIT NOW.
The common denominator this time around is various notions of
movement, real and imagined, implied and imposed, active and
inactive, and, as an exhibit to create a meditation on all motion.
The MONA exhibition of 12 regional artists’ works, in all media -
painting, works on paper, sculpture, installation, film/video,
performance, photography, textiles, web-based and interactive art
- will be on view from July 15 through August 13.
Including: Lisa Dillin, Chris Erchick, Anthony Frazzini, Marie
Gardeski, Aaron Hillman, Matt Monroe, Cynthia Randolph, Matt
Schlian, Jeffrey Schweitzer, Andrew Simsak, Amanda Thatcher, and
Andrew Thompson.
