Margaret Cogswell (New York, NY)
Part of SWAP
Cogswell divided her residency into three, two-week segments to extend her visit to include multiple seasons. She first researched the Cuyahoga River and its connections to diverse Cleveland communities, talked about water and drew with children from Head Start and the Urban Community School, and invited them to visit her studio in May. Cogswell was given a rare private tour of steel-making facilities and interviewed former steel workers, riverboat captains, and members of an environmental group in Akron during her second trip. Audio and video documentation were part of Cogswell's multimedia installation Cuyahoga Fugues, presented as part of Elements: Matter, Body, Mind and Spirit, May 9-June 20, 2003. She also presented an illustrated talk on her residency. Art in America critic Eleanor Heartney (NYC) has written the essay on Cogswell's installation for the SPACES brochure.
