ap-art-ment is the recipient of the LOOP Arts Grant

ap-art-ment is thrilled to be the first recipient of the LOOP Arts Grant!  We were able to print more than a few large-scale photos on LOOP Arts' large inkjet printer!  Thanks so much LOOP Arts.

We received the grant to print images for our upcoming show at Scrawl Center for Drawing.  The photos will be a part of an installation called "We are the field."

Far Along: Drawing by Depth in Shifting Margins

Far Along: Drawing by Depth, 2012.  Shaved red carpet, 3x25'.

Far Along: Drawing by Depth is included in Shifting Margins, a show curated by OFF Space.  The work is installed in the portion of the show that takes place at Aggregate Space in Oakland.

Shifting Margins includes an international roster of artists delving into the theme of marginalization; expanding upon ideas of aspiration, futility, exclusion, hope, fear and the desire to understand and be understood.

Shifting Margins embraces the center, the periphery and the bridge between in part, through the use of two locations “The City” (San Francisco) the perceived cultural and social center and its “marginal” sister city (Oakland) nodal point of racial and social upheaval.
