Bakehouse Art Complex

7:00 - 10:00 p.m.

Opening Reception - Contemporary Landscapes addresses the use of new technologies in relationship to the historical practice. Artists of the twenty first century are relating themselves to their surroundings through video, digital media, and the exploration of fantastic worlds. These seemingly new approaches to dealing with the landscape are taking all factors of surroundings into consideration when creating a depiction of the world surrounding the artist. Artists in the show will include Richard Höglund, Samantha Salzinger, Julia Hetchman, and various others. Curated by Nina Johnson, of Gallery Diet. 305/576-2828
