The show focuses on three different communities who balance the growing tension between the cultural diversity of the past and the homogenized present, looking into the lives of those who wish to preserve tradition.Photographs span the remote regions in the Sichuan Mountains, to the eagle hunters in the Altai Mountains in Mongolia.

Join us for the opening reception of Karl Martz and the Legacy of Indiana University Ceramics. Martz’s sons, Eric and Brian, will be here to help celebrate their father’s legacy.

Martz’s influence spread throughout Indiana and beyond through the ceramics program that he established at IU in 1945, and through his students. The comprehensive exhibition features major works by Karl Martz, his wife Becky Brown, faculty that taught (or still teach) in the IU Ceramics Department, and MFA students who went on to establish successful careers in ceramics.

This comedy musical transports the audience back to 1938 where they play the part of the congregation at the Saturday Night Gospel.

NOISE Contemporary Art Gallery proudly presents A Place to Put All My Art, a solo exhibition by St. Louis-based, Israeli born artist Edo Rosenblith. The title of the exhibition playfully references a George Carlin bit about homes as storage units for all of our stuff, highlighting the imperative of consumer accumulation that drives our society. Featuring prints, paintings, artist books, and animations, Edo draws from the history of cartooning and caricature as heavily as he does the work of similarly-inspired artist Phillip Guston. Edo’s work consistently features grotesque and distorted portraits and relies on his facility as a draftsman. Edo’s work interrogates and criticizes the process of accumulation directly through neoliberal capitalism and indirectly through the machinations of the art market, all without losing an exuberant passion for making itself.

Join us for an opening reception from 7:30 – 10 PM on Friday May 3rd and enjoy refreshments, camaraderie, and Edo himself, live and in the flesh! As always, gallery viewing appointments can be made and queries sent to [email protected] and more information can be found at http://noise.center
