The Bricoleurs:
The Fourth Annual Artists from the Registry Exhibition
Curated by Christian Fuller and Risa Shoup
January 26 – March 3, 2012
Each year BRIC Rotunda Gallery presents an exhibition exclusively drawn from its Artist Registry, an online resource containing over 1,000 active users. The 2012 exhibition The Bricoleurs will present the work of artists who explore the medium of collage and assemblage, and examine expanding the canon of these processes. These artists embrace the practice of bricolage - constructing new forms and imagery, and creating cogency among sometimes disparate elements.

Mystics: A blessed rage for order
Curated by Elizabeth Ferrer, Director of Contemporary Art
March 22 – April 29, 2012
Mystics: A blessed rage for order focuses on artists who obsessively and willfully engage in compulsive processes to create meticulous work spanning a range of media. The exhibition illustrates the delicate balance of technique and materiality, when process is as integral to a work’s meaning. Mystics is a formal exploration of art and labor: intensive individualism and form are enhanced by painstaking, methodological creations that evoke awe and wonder.

So to Speak
Lori Ledis Emerging Curator Exhibition
Curated by Emily Zimmerman
March 22 – April 29, 2012
So to Speak brings together the work of four artists who weigh the difference between visual and verbal forms, reflecting on the faults, slippages and tensions that arise when representing images with words. So To Speak presents artworks that question the status of the photographic image as a purveyor of truth, and the pervasiveness of still and moving images within the current visual regime. On display in the BRIC Rotunda Gallery Project Room.
