Nina Katchadourian: Sorted Books
September 2 – October 23, 2010
The Feldman Gallery is free & open to the public 9am-9pm

Since 1993, Nina Katchadourian's 'Sorted Books' project has taken place in locations ranging from private homes to specialized public collections. After sifting through a library of books, Katchadourian selects particular titles and groups of these books into clusters so that the titles can be read in sequence. Taken as a whole, the clusters examine each particular collection's focus, idiosyncrasies, and inconsistencies—a portrait of that library's holdings.

Part of PICA's TBA: 10

ABSTRACT
September 4—December 5, 2010
Tuesday – Sunday, noon to 5pm, FREE

Léonie Guyer
Ruth Laskey
Lynne Woods Turner

ABSTRACT presents the work of three contemporary women artists inspired by the history of abstraction’s spiritual, esoteric, and ritualistic dimensions. For Guyer, Laskey, and Turner, geometric abstraction provides a means for examining experience and sensation as directly as
possible, rigorously visualizing, in the words of Agnes Martin “…what is forever known in the mind.”

Reception with the artists: September 8, 6–9 pm

Free and open to the public.
