Anna Divinsky @ Future Tenant

December 8, 2006 through January 2, 2006

"Boundaries and Stems are two installations that explore the relationship between silk and skin. The opaqueness and transparency of “Boundaries” are reminiscent of living membrane or tissue covered in welts and small growths. This installation is an examination of fiber’s potential to stretch and droop in response to its surrounding environment. Each “welt” is authentic in its size, coloration, and shape, vulnerable to light and temperature. Warm colors and drooping shapes are evocative of human bodies that breathe and sway in response to human contact. “Stems” are humorous phallic forms that examine the human body and its connection to the plant world. Their intricate surfaces address the nature of human and non-human skin that constantly grows and transforms reflecting time’s toll."

Anna always has work in Digging Pitt's flat files and has been in several shows here.

offsite shows by gallery artists

Here are two Downtown Shows that include gallery artists. I want to apologize but from what I could see, niether gallery put any images of the shows online. I hope that no one is mad at me for trying to break the self imposed bubble that Pittsburgher's seem to love.

One show I have not seen yet, which is not something I should be forgiven for. Chances are very high that it's damn good.

Artists Upstairs June 2nd--July 14 . Haven't seen, but it includes two pretty amazing local artists in my files. Alexandra Etschmaier and Anna Divinsky. Alex has a large instalation in the show.

Three Rivers Arts Festival Gallery This claimed to show "The Best of Pittsburgh" and they will take some crap for that. But, It is a strong show. It includes file artists-- Adam Grossi, Fabrizio Gerbino, Chris Craychee, Josh Tonies and Anna Divinsky. Brett Yasko makes a pretty awsome statement using the gallery windows.
