Poe and Twain Projects: Simon Leung, Allison Smith, Amy Yoes
|
Glyndor Gallery | September 8-December 2, 2007
|
As part of our series to explore 19th -century American writing through the lens of contemporary art, three artists were invited to develop projects based on contemporary readings of these masters’ work. In each writer’s vast oeuvre, the artists have discovered writings that speak to their own concerns as artists. Collectively, these projects play with ideas of site-specificity and expectations about what might be found in this Georgian Revival house.
