I saw a mind-blowing exhibit a few days ago while I was in Baltimore. It's called Materials Girls and features the work of 8 contemporary women artists. These women all explore the use of three dimensionality, uncommon materials and processes. Each has such a unique artistic voice, and yet the exhibit hangs together because it is built on the central idea of non-conventional use of everyday manmade and natural materials.
It's up until mid-October so you have time to see it if you're in the Baltimore area.
The Artists:
Maya Freelon Asante (Baltimore, MD)
Chakaia Booker (New York, NY)
Sonya Clark (Richmond, VA)
Torkwase Dyson (Brooklyn, NY)
Maren Hassinger (Baltimore, MD)
Martha Jackson Jarvis (Washington, DC)
Joyce J. Scott (Baltimore, MD)
Renée Stout (Washington, DC)
Here's the link to the website with all the information
Here't the link to the Reginal Lewis Museum in Baltimore for general information. The Museum has other very interesting exhibits in addition to Material Girls.
