We've recently deleted our mailing list and started over. So if you were on your mailing list before, you need to sign up again. You can do this by visiting the homepage of our website. Our old list had gotten so large thta we couldn't afford to send to everyone. Now you have a better chance of actually receiving our postcards. Now, on with the show announcement: ***** RUSSIAN DOLL SHOW A traveling group exhibit of nesting dolls by contemporary artists from across the country. Curated by Eddie Martinez The Russian Doll Show: April 2 -May 2 Opening Reception: April 2. 6-11PM Philadelphia: April 2 - May 2, 2004 Space 1026 1026 Arch Street, 2nd.Floor Philadelphia,PA 19107 http://www.space1026.com/ Curator's statement: Russian Nesting dolls ( or Matryoshka dolls ) combine beauty and intrigue. They lead two very separate lives, one as little statues on display, the other as interactive toys; each one opening up revealing a smaller one inside, creating a family of pear shaped characters. The idea for this show resulted from the discovery that the dolls could be purchased in their raw wood state, unpainted. The challenge was to encourage artists who typically work 2- dimensionally to cross over to 3-dimensional work. The artists selected to participate in the show were chosen based on their artistic merit and enthusiasm. I also looked for work that lends itself to the ideas surrounding Matryoshka dolls, such as story telling, and creating art in series. They range from commercial illustrators to fine artists, to graffiti writers, describing a wide range of styles and ideas.
