Maker Art Show at Otis College of Art and Design The Maker Show is an exhibition at Otis College of Art and Design. The title is "MAKE:CRAFT" and is described as follow: Inspired by the cultural currents represented in the popular magazines MAKE and CRAFT published out of Northern California, MAKE:CRAFT includes contemporary artists who combine handmaking and building techniques to create, engineer and hack unique, mostly functional devices, objects, machines and accessories; making either a sociopolitical statement, creating new markets for individual styled products, or creating inventive ways to experience the tactile world, non-virtual, the "real." The exhibition is guest curated by Patricia Watts, founder and west coast curator of ecoartspace, who feels that recent trends in the DIY (Do-It-Yourself) movement of making and crafting have empowered contemporary artists and designers to create more socially relevant work that supports sustainable communities.MAKE:CRAFTBen Maltz GalleryOtis College of Art and DesignOctober 2 - December 4, 2010Read the Full Story » | More on CRAFT » | Comments » | Read more articles in Events | Digg this! blog.craftzine.com |
