Project Room
May 1 - May 28, 2010
Opening Reception May 1, 7-10 PM
"I am constantly scanning my surroundings, fixating on things that seem to be in
flux. My work is energized by ideas of change and conflict, placing an emphasis
on the perceptual understanding of everyday things, and how they impact life."
One of the most striking artworks in Roa's exhibition is Re-Form, a 12 foot
steel
cross mounted with police light bars that rotate and strobe.
The lights create a line that rotates around the space. He was an '09 Aferro
Studio
Resident.

Liminal Space
May 1 - May 28, 2010
Opening Reception May 1, 7-10 PM
Kate Okeson's recent
project, belles letters, is a series
of loosely bound writings from the artist/author to
herself about the years
before she gained agency. In these pieces, the artist
contemplates the challenge, coexistence, and potential to dislodge between the
state of 'becoming' and state of 'being'. The exhibition features a "forced
reading"
with pillows for the reader to kneel on, with a 48 foot accordion fold book. She
was an '09 Aferro Studio Resident.

Please consider donating art or experiences
[http://r20.rs6.net/tn.jsp?et=1103341899127&s=10490&e=001ChgM_m4XT7jaYnRizXQLQzaqHCx8PJpdfy0BH542ZY6a2rWlkpSEjIauoXKf6xvBzdrbtYp8CVhljnjkz9WhwKoe7_gvmRzG7QHo1rI9w3FLblyKHidBTnFie3qhaSNUvwALHP4sQE3Z9Q4kG0asVEKkzP6e_ZJkPy06BznecUSSjCsIOG4VbgMiB0bICPQwi3VqufW8diKkO4SGRAfJVw==]
Because of the generosity,
inventiveness and enthusiasm of all involved last summer, Gallery Aferro is
expanding into the vibrant and lasting resource it is meant to be, available to
all.This year, we need to ask for your help to make another leap.
In order to:
· Fully realize promising
national and international exchanges
· Launch the large-scale on
and off-site events we have imagined
· Unveil a highly functional
educational program addressing barriers to access
We need to make Paper Moon,
our 2nd benefit, a success. For more information or to ask any questions about
donating or the event, you can email [email protected]
Here are some highlights from
the year since we last sent a letter like this one, asking for your help:
· We have diversified our
studio workspace program to include 18-month residencies for one midcareer NJ
artist, and a thematic, collaborative residency run on a "lab" model. In
addition, all studio residents have access to a new blog.
· We are making even greater
use of the New Media Room with a "mixed reality" project; Newark is Watching,
taking place in the gallery and in Second Life, and the new quarterly Gallery
Aferro Independent Film Series, bringing independent feature length films and
filmmakers to Newark.
· We have been building
infrastructure and planning as the life of the gallery goes on, 365 days of the
year, 24 hours a day, in a wonderfully wide variety of ways.
· We built the Liminal space,
adding a fourth exhibition space for the public to explore and enlarging the
resources we can offer to emerging artists and site specific projects.
· We launched Art Shop,
designed to support Gallery Aferro's stability.
These new developments, as
with all of our programming initiatives, are designed to allow us to share what
we have with the maximum number of people each year. The constant, throughout
our past activities and future plans, is enabling the free exchange of ideas,
what critic Dave Hickey has called "trafficking in nothing but joy."
The works will be showcased in
the main gallery, and your name will be honored in current and future records
of gratitude. Our belief in exchange allows the night to function as a portrait
of our diverse extended community. Donating artists attend the event for free,
and have the option of purchasing one heavily discounted ticket for a guest.
Your contributions will go a
long way.
Please join us!
