Reclaimed

Reclaimed Exhibition • April 1 - April 26, 2009
Reception: Thursday, April 9th, 6-8pm • Gallery Talk: 7pm

Reclaimed is an exhibition that focuses on everyday common objects that are reclaimed, recycled, reinterpreted and transformed into art. From Marcel Duchamp’s “ready-mades” to Robert Rauschenberg’s “combines”, artists have been for years recycling and reclaiming everyday common objects and transforming them into something new and unique. The jurors for this exhibition are gallery owners and collectors, a husband and wife team, Steven and Linda Krensky. The jurors had to review 470 entries and decided on 34 works to be a part of the exhibition.

The Target Gallery, national exhibition space of the Torpedo Factory Art Center, is located on the waterfront in Old Town Alexandria, VA.
The gallery hours are Monday through Sunday 10-6pm and Thursdays 10-8pm.
