SPACES Outdoor Exhibit in MidTown Cleveland
SPACELab presents Corrie Slawson, a long-time Clevelander who, in her work and daily life, explores often-overlooked locales and the cast-off litter and remnants that grow and accumulate within these areas.
For her SPACELab project, Slawson will mix work and play with a collaborative clean-up and public art installation to revitalize three plots in MidTown Cleveland. Using elements from her own collection of materials and found objects from the site, the artist and her neighborhood team will work together to build colorful public art installations on two of the three spots provided by MidTown Cleveland, Inc. Slawson’s project Work Party 118 is an investigation of abandonment, industrialization and urban sprawl, as well as an attempt to ask city dwellers to take a closer look at available space in the city and to see it in a positive light. Through the exploration of form, line, color, waste, and land use, Slawson intends to show a rebirth of beauty and activity in a neighborhood she loves and wants to share.
Neighborhood residents and gallery visitors will be invited to sign up and receive Work Party instructions at the opening reception at SPACES on January 29, 2010 (between 6-9 p.m.). In the gallery, Slawson will present an accompanying exhibition that utilizes materials found in MidTown along with information about the site-specific projects.
