WINDOWWORKS 04 | Gary Sweeney

5.13.04

Join Artpace for the unveiling of Gary Sweeney's WindowWorks piece at ArtPace on May 13, 2004, 6:30-7:30 PM. Sweeney, whose often humorous work uses found commercial signage and other objects to create images and messages, has produced an installation for Artpace's Main Avenue windows, activating this downtown thoroughfare for passers-by.

Additionally, throughout the spring semester, Sweeney worked with more than 100 art students at Fox Tech High School on the planning and creation of a permanent installation for the school's campus (located just blocks north of Artpace on Main Avenue).

At the unveiling and reception, Sweeney will discuss his work as well as the collaboration with Fox Tech students. The piece at Fox Tech (above) is a rebus--spelled out through a system of pictures and symbols developed by the students. And its message is an uplifting one: 'Here at Fox Tech, we think that we can change the world!' Come see what Sweeney has created for ArtPace.
