Captive Werewolf - Karri A. Dieken

Tonight I'll be changing over the current exhibit at Captive Werewolf. Thanks to Steven Hight for letting us show his photographs. Next up is Karri A. Dieken. Karri is heading toward an MFA from Washington State University doing a lot of installation work. She was on the standby list for the Littlest Print Exchange in case any of the participants dropped out. Looking through her portfolio, I was excited by the photographic documentation of her installation, Calling All Dancers. I wasn't sure if there would be enough drop-outs from the exchange to secure Karri a spot, so I invited her to instead put together a show for Captive Werewolf. I'm glad she accepted. In the end, a spot opened up and she'll be participating in the exchange as well. Her exhibit at Captive Werewolf will be up through August 15th, after which it will likely be replaced by an exhibit from printmaker, Brad Widness.

Capital Steppin'

So that Small Works show in Washington DC opens tomorrow. The Washington Printmakers Gallery's press release claims that 740 prints were entered and that the juror selected only 42. If you are some kind of a mathematician and can show me how to plug those two numbers into a formula that will help me figure out my self-worth, I'd love to have your assistance. The actual reception isn't until the 7th and then there is a presentation by the juror on the 9th. If I were you, and if I were in the nation's capital, I'd go check that business out. As it is, I'll just be going about my regular life here in the midwest. When the reception is in full swing, I'll probably be sitting here at this very computer, either removing tiny particles of dust from some scanned negatives, or obsessively checking my flickr account to see if anyone has left me any comments. You, on the other hand, could be eating cheese, drinking wine, and rubbing your chin knowingly.
