Navigate, an exhibit of contemporary encaustic works
The exhibitions curator, Deborah Kapoor, herself a fabulous encaustic artist and teacher, was commissioned specifically for this show by the curators of the Corridor Gallery in Pioneer Square's Tashiro Kaplan building. A simple question led to the curation: "Why are artists of the 21st century drawn to this material?" Kapoor leveraged her significant network to put together an event and materials to lead us through a guided exploration of this topic. The result is an exhibition by five artists with companion writings by three authors. In addition, the show is structured like a guided treasure hunt: follow the clues in the catalog articles and track the accomplishments of each artists' journey, through to the conclusion of this compact exhibit.
One final note: I was fortunate to have the opportunity to collaborate on the graphic design and production of these fabulous catalogs and invitations with Deborah Kapoor. Please join us for the opening, January 2 from 5-9pm during First Thursday in Seattle's Pioneer Square. There will also be a private, by-invitation-only reception in mid-January. If you're interested in receiving an invitation to the private reception, please let me know. View, purchase or download the exhibition catalog here. Enjoy!
