    Carte de California: Contested Terrain

    Carte de California: Contested Terrain, an exhibition opening February, 9, 2013, at the Cal Poly Pomona W. Keith & Janet Kellogg University Art Gallery co-curated by Chaffey's Denise Johnson, Adjunct Faculty in Art History and Photo History, and Rebecca Trawick, Director of the Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art.

    Curated by Denise Johnson + Rebecca Trawick
    February 9 – March 23, 2013
    Artists reception: February 9, 630-930pm

    Carte de California: Contested Terrain features artists who explore California's landscapes, which were surveyed and plundered concurrent with the development of photography and the rise of popular image reproduction techniques like the carte-de-visite and stereo-card. Works in the exhibition will consider mapped spaces as divisional device and means of establishing the Other while questioning the arbitrary nature of boundaries that attempt to declare normal vs. marginal, mine vs. yours, the empowered vs. the exploited, and what is valued or abandoned. Carte de California: Contested Terrain will ask viewers to consider the contemporary implications of Manifest Destiny policies and capitalist practices as they mark the western landscape a contested terrain.

The reception for the artists will be January 22, 2013 from 6-8pm with light refreshments and entertainment. The New World is an exhibition that considers changing social, political and economic relations in the world from the perspective of Southern California-trained artists.

    The New World features artists who attended art school in Southern California, but whose outlook, explicitly or implicitly, engages with the changing world as emerging markets grow in economic and cultural prominence. Their work explores the conflicting feelings of fear and optimism elicited by a globalized world and art market, as well as the excitement, fascination, experimentation, uncertainty and displacement that accompanies change.

    The New World will include work by: Isabel Avila, Chris Barnard, Cathy Breslaw, Hugo Crosthwaite, Asad Faulwell, Chuck Feesago, Galeria Perdida, Kaguya, Bianca Kolonusz-Partee, Elleni Sclavenitis, and Joe Suzuki.
