AS220 Galleries are very proud to support the artists at the Top Drawer Art Center, a local nonprofit providing visual art programs for adults with developmental disabilities. Coordinator Seamus Hames recently dropped by to share some new works from Top Drawer artists with AS220's Flat File Project. Come in to the Project Space at 93 Mathewson and check out some of the new work. Here's a little preview ~

What's more, Nick Taylor, one of the Top Drawer artists recently added to the Flat File, will be exhibiting a collection of new works through March 31 at Cutler Mills Complex, located at 16 Cutler St. in Warren. The artist's reception will go down this Friday, March 18 at 2011 from 6pm-8pm. Did I mention that Nick's art jumps out of the world of TRANSFORMERS?? Yes, be ready for it:

Poet & multi-media artist Anne Shaw's installation Inscape examines the human body and our relationship to our bodies and how that knowledge, flawed as that knowledge imay be informs our relationship with with others as bodies, as persons.
The term "inscape" was coined by poet Gerard Manley Hopkins to reflect his idea that each thing in nature contains an intrinsic imprint, a design that makes it uniquely itself. Anne Shaw's installation presents a series of fourteen microscope slides, each containing a tissue specimen from the human body and an accompanying line of text. As a whole they comprise a visual sequence, a fragmentary sonnet, an unbound book, and a scientific investigation.
