States of Identity
Real and Imagined

The show runs January 9-February 8, 2008.
Opening reception: Friday, January 18, 5:00-8:00 pm

In this country we tend to identify ourselves by what we do rather than who we are. Artists are no different: we say "I am an artist" rather than "I make paintings" or "I make sculpture" or "I make prints". But who are we really? Don't we all identify with different aspects of ourselves at different times? The member-artists of Ithaca's cooperative fine art gallery will explore this theme through a variety of media.

This exhibit is funded in part by a grant from the New York
State Council on the Arts Decentralization Program.
