SUMMARY:ArtSpace Gallery exhibit - Mixed media assemblage by Wayne Bertola
DESCRIPTION:The ArtSpace Gallery at the Quad-Cities Campus is exhibiting “Imperfect Objects” – mixed media assemblage by Wayne Bertola – from Monday\, Feb. 23 to Friday\, April 3. \nEveryone is invited to a closing reception Thursday\, April 2 from 4-5:15 p.m. with an artist talk at 4:15 p.m. Light refreshments will be provided. \nThe ArtSpace Gallery is located on the first floor of Building 4 at the Quad-Cities Campus\, 6600 34th Ave.\, Moline. \nFor more information about exhibits in the ArtSpace Gallery\, email ArtDesign@bhc.edu or visit Black Hawk College Art and Design. \nAbout the artist\nI am\, for lack of a better term\, self-taught. My materials can be found in alleys\, streets\, abandoned buildings\, used bookstores\, garage sales\, flea markets and in nature. In short\, anywhere that I might find myself confronted by an object which bears witness to the inevitable yet unpredictable changes wrought by the passage of time. \nArtist Statement\nI believe that “style” is instinctual and is an organic process which gives form to an inner state or sensibility. If this collection of objects has any meaning in the accepted sense it is in its ability to combine found objects and images – the discarded debris of the once-functional and the humblest of materials – in such a manner as to demonstrate their capacity for transformation into objects that by the response they generate engage the viewer in a creative dialogue of association\, allusion and reverie invoking the presence of the past in the present\, the enigma of mortality haunted by eternity beyond the limitations of linear time.
