Supply and Demand examines the work of artists who provide us with moments to contemplate the necessity of the things we think we cannot live without. Participating artists include Damian Aquiles, Richard Artschwager, Robert Beck, Jim Hodges, Irwin, Vik Muniz, Tony Oursler, Alejandro Almanza Pereda, Jeff Sonhouse, and NSK (New Kollectivism).

 

As the economic health of modernized nations has become more and more dependent on the production and distribution of commodities, developed countries have found themselves drowning under the weight of consumer goods. Many visual artists have found this situation as an opportunity to consider the consequences of a global economy and the possibilities for creative outlets.  Whether using new or discarded household objects, these artists use manufactured materials and wares to create their work.

 

Curated by Lisa Dent, the exhibition in the Canzani Gallery at CCAD includes photography, sculpture, and mixed media installations that consider not only well-known sustainability initiatives like recycling but complex effects of the changing political economies of Eastern Europe.

 

The public is invited to attend the exhibition opening on Friday, October 7 from 6–8pm.

 

Columbus College of Art & Design prepares tomorrow’s creative leaders for professional careers. With a history of commitment to fundamentals and quality, CCAD advances a distinct, challenging, and inclusive learning culture that supports individual development in art, design, and the humanities.
