Klamath Art Association Cultural Center Exhibit Grand Opening, Opens Friday.
The exhibit will show how local artists imbue meaning and significance onto specific geographic locations within our environment, transforming physical space into “places” that hold cultural value, reflecting shared history, identity, and practices, often through landmarks, rituals, stories, and everyday experiences.
The categories of space and place are broad but can encompass nature, the city, environment, geography, atmosphere, and landscapes of the imagination. The artwork presented can range from natural to artificial, real to fictional, and sublime to commonplace. The artistic approaches can vary from representation to abstraction, documentary to conceptual. The selections reflect the diverse ways local artists engage space and place to explore questions of identity, memory, history, technology, and nostalgia.
