Consumption
July 2 – July 24, 2010
Artists’ and Public Reception: July 2, 2010
Theme: Consumption is a complex word. While it can signify the influence of advertising and marketing on our pervasive consumer culture, the word also speaks to profound human instincts. To be consumed by something-be it illness, emotions, or beliefs-is to oftentimes confront one's realities. What, why, when, and how we consume determines the ramifications of the choices we make. Additionally, consumers can simply suggest a transformation. The Center is looking for images that visually depict Consumption and what it means to you.
Juror: Brian Paul Clamp is the Director of ClampArt, a contemporary art gallery in Chelsea in New York City, established in 2000. Brian has nearly two decades of experience in the field. He holds a Masters of Art in Critical Studies in Modern Art from Columbia University and is the author of thirty publications on American Art to date.
