Exhibit Opening - ABC Show - 9/5/08 - Friday |
7:00 pm - 9:00 pm |

“The ABCs” are short for alphabet – the basis of our language. Without the alphabet we couldn’t string a word together and therefore would be unable to communicate in the way that we do. Wikipedia defines alphabet as “a standardized set of letters — basic written symbols — each of which roughly represents a phoneme of a spoken language, either as it exists now or as it was in the past.” The word "alphabet" came into Middle English from the Late Latin word Alphabetum, which in turn originated in the Ancient Greek Alphabetos, from alpha and beta, the first two letters of the Greek alphabet. Letters of the alphabet may be highly stylized or broken down into the most primitive lines and strokes but still represent the same basic idea. These different variations or fonts have the power of representing a specific mood, period of time, attitude or brand. HUB-BUB pays homage to the alphabet with The ABC Show, an invitational art exhibit. Twenty six regional and national artists were each given a letter and invited to create a piece of artwork for the show with the letter as the subject matter. |

Through synchronized physical and intellectual challenges, we will examine the established model of a “respectable” adult, with theater games, gentle partner stretching, show and tell, journaling, public performances, story hour, paper bag puppetry, food fights, gum chewing contests, free haircuts, modern dance, upholstering lessons, ant farming, large-scale balloon caressing, Swedish audio instruction, lense popping, lime-hydration techniques…even snack time. SNB will provide a nurturing environment, brimming with spontanaeity. We will generate trust, love and freedom within the community, and hope you like us anyway.

Exhibit Opening - Art & Politics - 10/15/08 - Wednesday |
7:00 pm - 9:00 pm |
|
Throughout history, artists have used their work as a medium in the search for truth. The political visions of artists have played a key role in this search and helped to define the truth of our society. The United States was founded in the name of freedom, equality, democracy, and our freedom of expression is central to these American ideals. In the year of this landmark American Presidential Campaign, this exhibit, Art and Politics 08’, will explore the ways in which contemporary art seeks social change. There is an open call for submissions for this exhibit. See the oportunities page for more information. |
