Transitioning
September 9th, 2008With the Light Project opening last Thursday, you’d think it would be a little calmer around here this week. Not even close. We just finished up a two day symposium on Flavin (videos and photos from that coming soon), and work on the Light Project continues – we’re still updating our web catalogue with new information, finalizing a print booklet to accompany the project, and press continues to roll in. And that’s just in my department. Speaking of press, the Beacon has some new material up – a wonderful review by Ivy Cooper and an excellent video from the night of the opening.
But for the most part, there’s been a major shift in focus this week towards the next exhibition, Ideal (Dis-) Placements: Old Masters at the Pulitzer. It opens in a little over a month – here’s what David Bonetti wrote in this week’s Fall Preview in the Post-Dispatch (click here and scroll down). Stay tuned for much more to come.
