Joshua Parker: Humans are the only species on the planet that create trash, one good turn deserves another...Reception - The Sculpture Center

January 14 - 26, 2011

Opening Reception: January 14th @ 5.30pm

A Window to Sculpture Emerging Artist Exhibition

The Sculpture Center

1834 East 123rd St. Cleveland, Oh

After posting about Ms. Omaitz's upcoming reception I finally brove (braved?) the frozen barren wasteland of the adjoining parking lot to take a gander at what was going on the the Archives Gallery. That is when I stumbled upon the realization that Mr. Joshua Parker, who piece "Sometimes an entrance is actually an exit" (which I had the opportunity to experience earlier last year at Spaces Gallery) was completing his installation to open opposite Shadow Structure. It was a very interesting exhibit, a singular experience in isolation, solitude and close proximity which simultaneously allowed concentrated voyeuristic experiences, if you could find them. It was a journey of discovery (not to be too trite about it, there were hidden components you had to find.
