PARTS&LABOR
The Annex Theatre and Gallery
419 E. Oliver St. Unit 2W
February 6 - March 6 2019
Opening Reception: Saturday, February 6 at 7 pm
PARTS&LABOR is the debut visual/performing arts show at the Annex Theater. We are opening our interpretation of a "white cube" gallery in the established non-profit performing arts space with grants from STEW and The Baltimore Community Foundation. Artists were asked to respond to the concept of "Labor." The call was met with entries addressing capitalism, commuting, artistic process, workers' rights, childbirth, and light-hearted kvetching about the day jobs one ends up working with a BFA. Participating visual artists/collectives include:
CHRISTINE BAILEY
COLIN BENJAMIN with JOHN BYLANDER
DAZZLESTORM!
CARRIE FUCILE
ELISABETH GAMBINO
JM GIORDANO
GARY KACHADOURIAN
