Detour888 begins its second series entitled "Organized Labor". The work being presented is by artists who work across a variety of media: painting, printmaking, installation, and photography. Work in this series highlights the role that the hand of an artist plays and the commitment to labor while following the creation of a system of work, devised by the mind.
The work eschews nostalgia, however, it does call into question the nature of our contemporary, fast-paced, lives and the mass-produced objects they contain.
The
exhibit will feature work by Vibrata Chromodoris, Margaret Howe, Manisha Patel, Amy Rathbone, Patrick Rock, Cristina Sitja Rubio, Ryan Taber, Trevor Tubelle and Cheyenne Weaver.
