Inside Out Elmhurst Art Museum October 18, 2008-January 11, 2009
Inside Out is an exhibition exploring and exposing our ensconced perspective of sculpture and theme. Inside Out can suggest something made topsy-turvy and presented to the viewer in a new way; the orderly arrangement of structure is made both chaotic and lyrical. The show's title can also imply the act of seeing beyond the surface with the viewer encountering sculpture that creates an aesthetic impact where it does not exist.
Inside Out will feature two important American sculptors, Chakaia Booker, who lives and works in New York and Bob Emser, from Illinois. Their work will complement and confront, challenging the viewer to think of the artists' expression of their emotions, memories, and internal creativity – in a sense bringing their insides out.
