Free Bus to the Suburbs for A Porous Space Opening
Deborah Boardman's latest multi-media exhibit, A Porous Space, will open on June 3rd at the College of DuPage's Gahlberg Gallery in Glen Ellyn, Illinois. For those without the necessary transportation, the artist has arranged for a free bus from the Art Institute of Chicago to the gallery opening. The bus will leave at 5pm and return to the city by 9pm.
A Porous Space focuses on a common thread between the earth and human experience: faults. Juxtaposing the fault lines of the earth with our own flaws, Boardman's work is a unique attempt to connect us with our environment. Her paintings and her constructed wooden crank illustrate the shared faults of a random selection of the population. During the opening, a group will sing their faults aloud. Other site-specific installations will call to mind the physical fault lines of the space within and below the gallery.
The exhibit will be on display from June 3 to August 7.
