2-channel digital video installation, Book of the Dead is a consideration of Baltimore's abandoned housing and the relationship between community and the self.

Silver-Brown Dance from New York City
2 NIGHTS ONLY!!!

Athletically daring and kinetically explosive dance from New York city..


Doors: 7:00pm
Show 8:00pm

Tickets: $10

With rave reviews from the New York Times and the Village Voice, The Silver-Brown Dance Company brings their fearless kinetic pyrotechnics and comic abandon to Baltimore.

Hailed by The New York Times as "free-wheeling, uninhibited, a refreshing free-form approach to conventional dance technique," Silver-Brown Dance was established in 1998 by Artistic Director Eva Silverstein with Music Director and renowned jazz/hip hop musician Guillermo E. Brown, who composes original sound scores for each production.

Athletically daring and kinetically explosive, Silver-Brown Dance is a contemporary, urban modern dance company. Recently recognized for outstanding achievement by The Brooklyn Arts Council, Silver-Brown Dance was honored in November with a city-wide proclamation, declaring "Silver-Brown Dance Day" in Brooklyn, USA.

This February Silver-Brown Dance will debut three new pieces in Baltimore, en route to Lincoln Center, where the company will appear this April. In 2004 Silver-Brown Dance will celebrate six years of cutting edge dance innovation with an international tour to Israel and France.

April 8 - May 2 Intersections
Exhibition curated by Talia Greene

"..the space between drawing and object, feeling and seeing, space and image..." -W.C.
ng: Saturday, April 10, 7-10pm

Gallery Hours: Sat and Sun 12 - 5pm

Formalism vs. Conceptualism, Drawing vs. Sculpture, Craft vs. Art, High Art vs. Low Art. This exhibition brings together installations that hover at the intersection between these familiar art-world dichotomies. Building on the movements of past generations, these artists conflate boundaries between disciplines and "isms" in art. Employing accessible and mundane materials, the pieces simultaneously transcend and embrace an obsession with materials and formal explorations of shape, line, and two and three dimensional space.

Participating Artists: (more to come)

Nicole Fein
Christine Buckton Tillman
William Cromar
