SPACES presents installations by Dana B. Fritz and Sarah Kabot as part of its SPACELab program. The shows will run in conjunction with Home on the Edge, which opens on November 19 with a reception from 5-9PM. SPACELab focuses on smaller, experimental and timely projects. Applications are reviewed year round by a committee of working artists. Dana B. Fritz (Lincoln, NE) presents Distant Landscape from November 19 - December 10, 2004. Fritz's current work references the physical and psychological space between urbanites and the natural landscape. She creates window-like translucent panels that act as filters, creating a sense of voyeurism or distance that protects us from participation in the natural world. These window panels, combined with floral or plant patterned wallpaper designs on floating floor pieces, invoke an artificial and orderly version of the world. From December 11, 2004 - January 7, 2005, Cleveland artist Sarah Kabot creates a three-dimensional installation that shifts and merges the grid-like structures of SPACES floor, brick wall and windows. Her work investigates and reattaches significance to the places and things in our lives that we take for granted. The work delineates the tenuous connections between ourselves and our surroundings. A closing reception for Home on the Edge and SPACELab will be on Friday, January 7, 2005, 5-9 pm.
