Final Exhibition of 2010 Closes December 12th: ResVU 1 & 2: an art exhibition

Community members are invited to the public opening of ResVU 1 & 2 – (SCENE) Metrospace’s final exhibition of 2010 – on Friday, Oct. 29 from 6-9 p.m. The opening is free and the exhibition will be on display in the gallery space through Sunday, Dec. 12.

The title of the show, ResVU 1 & 2, refers to a new, alternative bi-annual publication and performance series entitled ResCollecTiVU. With a goal of creating community through art and artists, local resident and ResCollecTiVU editor Corrina Van Hamlin put a call out for local artist submissions to be compiled in a series of bi-annual publications that showcase the creative talent of the region.

With overwhelming response, Van Hamlin has designed her first two issues of ResCollecTiVU, “The Makers” and “Black & White.” Both issues include poetry, photography, art, graphics and more by artists from the Greater Lansing area, Michigan State University (MSU) and MSU’s Residential College of the Arts and Humanities.

With the ResVU 1 & 2 exhibit, (SCENE) Metrospace will feature artwork showcased in Van Hamlin’s first two issues and will also host events during the duration of the exhibition showcasing the talent of the creative individuals captured in both issues. Visit www.blurb.com and search for “The Makers” to view and/or purchase the first issue of ResCollecTiVU.
