Special Notice:

Hartford Public Library's ArtWalk gallery is closed while the Downtown Library is under renovation.

 

THE FOLLOWING EXHIBITION HAS BEEN POSTPONED DUE TO THE DOWNTOWN LIBRARY CLOSURE. 

Art is Work; Work is Art
Joe Bun Keo, Rick Bogdan, David Borawski
Jon Eastman, Christopher Schroeder

ArtWalk Gallery, 3rd Floor, Downtown Library

This group exhibition features five artists who are museum professionals all working in local art institutions and private collections as art handlers.

Bun Keo says, "we are the magicians that make exhibitions shine and are stewards of the artwork."

While they work, they are informed by the workplace and the debris of their day to day operations. Inspiration arises from remnants of fabric and odd cuts of wood. There's a common denominator, that is the the value of work, conceptually, metaphysically and emotionally.
