Join us at the Society for Contemporary Craft as we examine
Nature/Culture: Artists Respond to Their Environment
The Group Against Smog & Pollution cordially invites you to our annual fall benefit, where guests can view the exhibit Nature/Culture: Artists Respond to Their Environment. This exhibit compares works by contemporary artists that identify with culture and the byproducts of an urban society with works responding to nature and the natural environment. Particular attention will be given to the work of Los Angeles artist Kim Abeles. Abeles’ smog-etched porcelain “Presidential Commemorative Smog Plates” comment on the responses of U.S. Presidents to environmental issues. More information about the exhibit can be found at http://www.contemporarycraft.org
In addition to an interesting program, an assortment of delicious hors d’oeuvres, wine, music and mingling await you. As in the past, we will have a wonderful array of silent auction items to bid on including a Littlearth Steelers purse, a one-year family membership to the Center for Creative Play, yoga classes from School House Yoga, and many, many more.
Proceeds from this event underwrite GASP’s year-round education and advocacy activities. Please be sure to invite your family, guests and colleagues for a memorable evening. If you are not already on our mailing list and want to be sure to receive an invitation please email bridget@gasp-pgh.org.
