The Ohio Art League is pleased to announce its FEBRUARY
2003 Member Curated Exhibition, all or part of the weight, works by Zerek
Kempf and Jesse Hemminger, curated by Zerek Kempf.
Combining elements of video, robotics, and installation, Kempf and
Hemminger create an environment dedicated to the awareness of “support.”
Using conceptual and physical means to deliver various definitions of the
word, each artist conveys his own interpretations of what support is and
what it means to be supported.
Jesse deals with issues of interpersonal
relationships. Creating a symbiotic relationship with Jesse’s work, Zerek
focuses on the conditions of display and the dependency which occurs in the
hierarchy of support that develops within the institutional setting.
(Artists’ Statement)
About the MCE’s: The Ohio Art League invites it’s 800+ artists to submit a
short written proposal to the Exhibition Committee. Exhibitions can be
thematic, retrospective or otherwise. A proposal includes an outline for an
exhibition describing the idea, well thought out and presented with visuals.
The proposals are reviewed by a committee of League members, and are
selected based on the exhibition idea. Once a proposal is approved and
scheduled the committee does not interfere with the integrity of the
exhibition.
The Ohio Art League is a nonprofit member organization dedicated to the
presentation and support of Ohio based artists. The gallery is located at
954 N. High Street in Columbus’ Short North. The gallery is open to the
public every Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday from
12 -5 pm. For more information please contact Ellen Grevey at 614-299-8225.
The Ohio Arts Council helped fund this program with state tax dollars to
encourage economic growth, educational excellence and cultural enrichment
for all Ohioans. IMAGE: Jesse Hemminger
