Cornucopia week


The cup runneth over. I want to share these with you and I hope to make a number of them. This is the tip of the iceberg, of course, since ICA is non-stop events with the Locally Localized Gravity exhibit. But I am highlighting what appeals to me. Hope to see you.

TUESDAY, FEB 6

Art Grad Students to Speak on “Empathy” at Temple Gallery
Moderated by Director of Exhibitions and Public Programs Sheryl Conkelton
Tuesday February 6 th @ 7:00pm, Reception follows
Temple Gallery
259 N. 3rd Street b/t Race & Vine,

Sue Spaid‘s MFA students —Erin Arnold, Vincent Balistrieri, Chris Bowne, Rachel Dobkin & Ryan McCartney–in her Interdisciplinary Seminar are holding forth on Empathy Tuesday at the gallery. Spaid, whom Libby and I met through our mutual friend, curator Amy Lipton of Abington Art Center, is a writer, critic, former gallery owner and philosopher. Her interest is on performance-based work and she’s a mighty entertaining speaker herself. Because the world is small, it turns out that Spaid knows the Black Floor gang from her (and their) days in Cincinnati, and BF has enlisted her for a gig at the ICA. She’ll be lecturing on “The Goldfish Test”, Mar. 18 sometime between 11 am and 5 pm.
