Art Gallery: September 1, 2006
Intangible Evidence
Friday, July 14, 2006 to Sunday, October 08, 2006 - Level 4

Opening reception:
Friday July 14, 2006 7 pm

Intangible Evidence offers a glimpse of innovative artistic projects that explore the documentation of the latent meanings and hidden stories that reside within historical objects and archival representation. Bringing creative practice to bear on objects drawn from within museum and archive collections of The Rooms, the artists involved in the exhibition have also brought their unique experiences, backgrounds, and obsessions that inevitably infuse the creative process.

Collaboratively, the work of Michael Crummey, Sara Graham, Andy Jones, Alison Norlen, and Graeme Patterson represents an interdisciplinary dialogue that crosses genres of drawing, animation, installation, audio, and text, illuminating the inevitable fluidity of the imagination of history and memory, and the lines of fact and fiction. Reflecting the diversity of creative process as well as artistic forms of cultural research, the exhibition suggests directions for new spaces for artistic creation, innovation, and debate.
