[MKE - Indymedia] Seeing Green Exhibition

[Brandon Bauer]

The Seeing Green exhibition of art and environment will soon be opening at Woodland Pattern!

Exhibition Website: http://seeinggreenartshow.wordpress.com/

Exhibition Information:

Seeing Green encourages artists to leave the confines

of the studio and take an active role with the

community, to collaborate and address issues of the

environment, and to open a dialog with the public.

Guest curator Nicolas Lampert invited over 40 local

artists to work on a project for the duration of eight

months. During the month of April, 2008 the show will

be exhibited at Woodland Pattern Book Center in

Milwaukee, Wisconsin where the gallery will serve as a

hub space, informing the viewer and the public of the

many environmental projects taking place throughout

the city, exhibiting visual work and books, screening

films and holding discussions and events based around

the exhibition.
