Any way you look at it, Scripted at Gross McCleaf Gallery is a pretty open-ended script. While a significant portion of the show in McCleaf’s wonderful gallery space is devoted to painting, there are also strange objects, an installation, photos, and video art.
When Anne Schaefer creates art, she wants to immerse the viewer in a particular visual environment. Because of this, her work is usually large-scale. One challenge she encountered in planning her current show at the Tiger Strikes Asteroid Gallery was tailoring her vision to the gallery’s small dimensions.
