Ben Waterman: The Grand Rooms
Opening: Thursday, September 2, 6-8 p.m.
Exhibition running: September 2 – 30, 2010
In September, 4Culture is delighted to present an exhibition of brand new work by Seattle-based artist Ben Waterman. The Grand Rooms consists primarily of sculpture composed of divergent materials: clay (both raw and fired), paint, drywall, and wood. Waterman, still early in his career, has exhibited extensively with projects noteworthy in scale and scope. He recently created Risking to Care for a Place in Occidental Park as part of ArtSparks through 4Culture’s Site Specific Program. Having spent many years studying wood fire ceramics in Japan and the US, Waterman’s material conscious installations maintain a profound connection to his roots in ceramics.
Please join us for Ben’s opening on Thursday, September 2nd at 6pm. Make a night of it by checking out dozens of our local neighborhood galleries during Pioneer Square’s First Thursday Art Walk.
