NEW VALUES

everyday objects into art objects

Leticia Bajuyo

Louis Bickett

October 30 – November 28, 2009

Reception: Friday, November 6, 6 – 9 p.m.

Why do some objects find their way into the esteemed status of art and others wind up in a landfill?  Leticia Bajuyo and Louis Bickett take everyday objects and creatively recycle them through thoughtful selection and arrangement, and make them meaningful. They make them works of art. 

Both artists work with installation, and a large-scale work, “Rewind Replay Reflect: the thinness of memory,” by Bajuyo fills a significant part of the gallery.

This is a MA curatorial thesis exhibition curated by Joey Yates.

The Cressman Center is at 100 E. Main St. (40204), First & Main, in downtown Louisville. 

In addition to the art gallery, the Cressman Center is home to the Hite Art Institute's Glass Studios, which are also accessible during gallery hours and host visiting artists in glass and several public demos and lectures each year. (Map of Hite locations.)
