CASEWORKS @ The Art Museum at the University of Memphis presents Curious Environs a group exhibition curated by Paul Behnke that brings together artists from Brooklyn, NY, Philadelphia, PA and Memphis, TN.
In the 16th century some of the decadent cabinetry of the Flemish Renaissance included hidden drawers, small compartments and doors for displaying works of art and interest. These cabinets were in the height of fashion into the 17th century and this concept lends itself readily to the Caseworks exhibition space and the work displayed in this exhibition. Curious Environs connects with this bygone experience by offering a look at five exciting and contemporary artists with strong and varied exhibition backgrounds.
Opening Reception, Friday, December 3rd 2010 6-8 PM, exhibition continues through January 14th. Participating Artists: Megan Bisbee-Durlam, Joe Brittain, Juan Hinojosa, Dale McNeil, Vincent Romaniello
