ICI Associate in Exhibition
ICI Associate, Christel Dillbohner is being featured in a new exhibition, “ICE FLOE JOURNALS” at 1821 Gallery & Studios in Fresno from September 4 – October 18, 2014.
“In the last five years, she has been creating a large series of contemplative, abstract, process paintings circling around imaginative, clearly Nordic-looking, landscapes. In these works she is exploring – with the melting glaciers in mind – the balance of process transformation, geological reference and emotional drama. For this group of works she has developed a new painting method with pigments dissolved and strained into an emulsion of water, oil and wax. The liquefied pigments are poured onto the canvases, wooden panels or sheets of absorbent paper. […] She allows the material to oscillate between the principles for randomness and control until she has found what she is looking for.”
Art Hop opening reception, Thursday, September 4th, 5-8pm

ICI Associate, Martin Gantman is being featured in a new exhibition entitled Los Angeles Contraventions at Galerie Merkel (Baslerstrasse 2, 79639 Grenzach-Wyhlen, Germany).
“Contravention to perceived realities is a tried and true Los Angeles staple. It is a city that was founded on alternate metaphors and narratives. In Contraventions, Los Angeles based artists create multi-disciplinary work countering the expected and banal.”

The making of books is a process that straddles the line between fine art and craftsmanship. It can create both what we know and think of as ‘books’ – two covers, hard or soft, with a range of pages sandwiched in between – or it can diverge entirely and take the form of the sculptural, the conceptual, the ‘in-between’ or the ‘none of the above.’
Following our recent involvement in the 2nd annual LA Art Book Fair (hosted by Printed Matter), the Institute of Cultural Inquiry is proud to present a curated display of handmade artist books, books about books from the Institute’s library and unique collections that celebrate the making of unique book art objects.
Featured artists on display include Dorothy Royer, Leslie Corrigan, Janet Klein, Pam Posey, Deborah Cullen, and the Museum of Forgery, among others.
