The Puppet Show
Project Room 1: Bruce Busby: Super Faulty Reconfiguration
Park Studio: Shadows and Gags

Through Saturday, August 9, 2008

SMMoA begins the summer of its Twentieth Anniversary year with innovative exhibitions that have strong Los Angeles connections. The Puppet Show is a provocative, multimedia group exhibition of the work of 27 acclaimed artists that explores puppet imagery in contemporary art. The exhibition includes works by Southern California-based artists Mike Kelley, Paul McCarthy, and Charlie White. The three months of special programs associated with The Puppet Show highlights the incredible rich array of local artists working in experimental and avant-garde puppetry. Learn more about The Puppet Show.

Bruce Busby, an Oakland-based artist, explores the ways in which people can protect themselves from contamination rising from the fault lines in the San Francisco Bay and Los Angeles areas. Bruce Busby: Super Faulty Reconfiguration features two of the artist’s hand-sewn nylon multicolor Creativity Enhancement Shelters, structures that function as safe-havens from the impurities in the environment. Also on view are large-scale drawings Creativity Amplification Quakes (CRAQUE), that depict the atmospheric “inhibitants.” Learn more about Bruce Busby.

Park Studio: Shadows and Gags features three shadow puppet shows, prints, and animations by 17 students mentored by artists Lynn Jeffries, Artemio Rodriguez, and Paul Zaloom. Park Studio is a free outreach program offered to neighborhood middle and high school students during spring break. The program is developed and organized by Asuka Hisa, SMMoA’s Director of Education.

Programs for The Puppet Show are funded, in part, by the City of Santa Monica’s Community Arts Grant Program.

The Puppet Show is organized by the Institute of Contemporary Art, University of Pennsylvania. It is co-curated by Ingrid Schaffner, ICA Senior curator, and Carin Kuoni, Director, The Vera List Center for Art and Politics at The New School. ICA thanks the following funders: Barbara B. & Theodore R. Aronson; Etant donnes: The French-American Fund for Contemporary Art; Susquehanna Foundation; The Toby Fund; The Bandier Family Foundation; Goldberg Foundation; Sotheby’s; Greater Philadelphia Tourism Marketing Corporation; The Chodorow Exhibition Initiative Fund; and the Philadelphia Exhibitions Initiative, a program of the Philadelphia Center for Arts and Heritage, funded by The Pew Charitable Trusts, and administered by University of the Arts.

Wall Works: blik and me

On View through July 25 in Bergamot Station’s G Gallery Hallway

In the latest Wall Works project, Los Angeles-based wall graphics company blik collaborated with students from all over Southern California to create a site-specific installation made with color vinyl adhesives. All the adhesive images were made from drawings that answered the question: What would you be if you were not human?

Wall Works is an ongoing, free program that involves hundreds of Southern California schoolchildren, artists, and community partners in the creation of large-scale public artworks.

To participate in a future Wall Works project, please contact Asuka Hisa, SMMoA’s Director of Education,
