Leigh-Ann Pahapill Opening Tonight, July 5th

Canadian artist, Leigh-Ann Pahapill, has been generous enough to allow the first iteration of her brand new project to be installed at Window this month.  It's sure to generate some conversation.

My Hair is Very Electric Here

....so forms the primary text in Toby Kaufmann-Buhler's piece In/voluntary Re/actions, created specifically for window.  (Click HERE to view the piece and read the press release).

If you are in Asheville, be on the lookout for little pads with tear-off sheets inviting your participation in discussing this work (see below).  If you're in a more distant location, feel free to voice your opinions here on the blog as a comment or as an individually authored post (which I would be happy to publish).

There will be a public reception this Friday at Henco from 5:30 to 7 p.m.  We're hoping for some good conversation!

A.D. Coleman on Robert Heinecken

I really appreciate a lot of what A.D. Coleman has to say in Part 2 of this essay on Heinecken.  You can link to it HERE (scroll to the end of the article to read Part 1, also of interest).  He closes with the suggestion that Heinecken's legacy has "gradually forced those who privilege art over photography, and artists over photographers, to confront their prejudices. The best way for both sides to thank this unlikely bodhisattva for his service would be to erase the arbitrary line that divides them."


I hope that's what we can do here at window as well.
