Works on paper by Liz Miller in Sister Rosaire Gallery

Sister Rosaire Gallery: Drawings by Minnesota-based installation artist Liz Miller.  Inspired by systems that contain examples of simultaneous order and chaos, Liz Miller’s mixed media, wall based installations and works on paper reference biology, natural disasters, and computer imagery.  Imagined interactions between disparate systems, and the unpredictable outcomes of such encounters, provide a point-of-departure for works that divulge equal parts fact and fiction.

Joseph DeLappe's "dead in Iraq" project, ongoing

Joseph DeLappe’s dead-in-iraq project is an ongoing online intervention commenced in March 2006, to roughly coincide with the third anniversary of the start of the Iraq war. DeLappe enters the online US Army recruiting game “America’s Army” in order to manually type the name, age, service branch and date of death of each American service person who has died to date in the Iraq conflict. The work is essentially a fleeting, online memorial to those American military personnel who have been killed in this ongoing conflict. The exhibition includes a video documenting scenes from live online interventions.
