Last December, Paula Baldoni, co-owner of River House Arts, proposed a call for Great Lakes regional artists to submit to a juried exhibition: Borders. An abstract concept on it’s own, the call prompted nearly 400 works.
“What sort of emerged was, work all over the spectrum,” said juror, Sarah Rose Sharp, a career critic of Midwest artists, writes for Art in America and Hyperallergic. “Submissions were all over the map, a few that deal with more literal concepts of maps, [but also artists who…] dealt with more ephemeral borders, that had to do with identity and borders between media.”
A little less than 30 works will be debuted for this exhibition during the opening from 6-8pm, on Thursday, March 3 where Sharp will speak, prior to the awards at 6:30pm.
Through March 31. Read our online interview with Sharp at toledocitypaper.com. Walter E. Terhune Gallery at Owens Center for Fine and Performing Arts, 30335 Oregon Rd., Perrysburg.
