Love for Sale: You Know You Need It
Curated by Ryan Standfest
January 13 - February 24, 2012
Reception on Valentine’s Day - Tuesday, February 14 from 6 - 9 pm at Work:Detroit
Open during exhibitions Tuesday through Saturday: 11:00 am - 4:00 pm, Closed Sunday/Monday and Holidays. Free Admission. 3663 Woodward Ave;Detroit, MI 48201
The title, after both the Cole Porter song and another by the Talking Heads, is meant as an ironic gesture signaling the paradox of selling created need; that is, to make consumers want what you tell them to love. LOVE FOR SALE, the exhibition, is meant to address the image as a means of selling, of creating need.
With Jef Bourgeau / Andrea Cardinal / Russell Christian / Nikki DeSautelle / Molly Dierks / Raymond Domzalski / Clare Fox / Ian Huebert / Donald Kilpatrick III / Andy Krieger / Marie e Julio / Jason Moore / Jim Pallas / Lauren Satlowski / Stephen William Schudlich / Neva Sills / Laura Thompson / Britta Urness / Sarah Beth Woods

Accepted Knowing: Peer Review
Group show at Figure One in downtown Champaign, IL.
Opening July 29th 6-8pm show runs through August 26th 2011
Works included in this exhibition concentrate on the nature of knowledge. What do we know, how do we come to know it, and what are the limits of knowing?
In scholarly research, what is accepted as “known” must be validated by professionals in that field. This exhibition engages with the peer review process through both its content and its structure. The jury process for this exhibition mimicked these collective validations of knowledge by allowing applicants to serve as a pool of experts who then collaboratively determined which work would be included in the show through anonymous written reviews.
