Word on the Street: Image/Language/Signage
JUNE 14 - AUGUST 10, 2013
OPENING RECEPTION: FRIDAY, JUNE 14, 5:0–7:00 P.M.
This exhibition considers the expressive potential of image and language through signage: how do artists use the visual and physical characteristics of signage, along with its often site specific cultural currency, to create realms of poetic or political meaning in public space or the gallery? With a focus on forms of permanent and ephemeral signage this exhibition will consider artists' billboards, marquees, street signs, banners and posters among other forms of infrastructural signage. The exhibition is being held in association with the THIRD ANNUAL TYPOGRAPHY SYMPOSIUM at CBPA.
Artists include Superflex, Laura Kina, Chris Dorland, Mark Dean Veca, Joel Ross, Jason Thomas Pallas, Jaclyn Jacunski, Peter Liversidge, Jeffrey T. Jones, Jonathan Monk, Eric May, Steve Lambert, and Nicolas Lampert.
