SUMMARY:The Fine Art of Denim
DESCRIPTION:EXHIBITION EXTENDED UNTIL OCTOBER 14!!\nDenim\, with all its symbols and dualities\, is a common item of clothing that unites many around the globe. Dad Jeans\, skinny jeans\, low riders\, bell bottoms\, boot leg\, wide leg\, no leg\, 501s\, 504s\, button fly\, stretch jeans\, the American dress code writ large across centuries. With so many styles available and ways to accessorize/manipulate the fabric\, denim has historically allowed for a freedom of expression representing both individuality and shifts in cultural movements. Denim comes in a wide range of blues and other colors\, washes\, fades and textures making it a perfect\, but not obvious\, medium to create fine artwork. Denim that was discarded can open up a new way of looking\, a startling way of seeing past the everyday. What we have abandoned\, will be presented again\, re-purposed from the lives we lived\, to moments we experience together “forever in blue jeans.” \nMonmouth University’s Center for the Arts is pleased to present The Fine Art of Denim\, a juried exhibition of artists who use recycled denim in new and creative ways. The works featured in this exhibit come from artists all over the United States and abroad. \nPieces were selected from almost 100 entries by juror Vincent DiMattio\, an accomplished artist and Monmouth University Professor in the Department of Art and Design\, where he has taught for over 50 years and served as department chair and as gallery director for more than 20 years. \nExhibiting Artists include: Michele Fandel Bonner\, Howard Brandenburg*\, Kerstin Bruchhaeuser\, Emily Budd*\, Don Coulter\, Allison Dent\, Debra Disman\, Heidi Drahota\, Shelley Gardner\, George Gianakopoulos\, Sabine Heinlein\, Malka Kutnick\, Tanya Lucadamo\, Bob Mosier\, Johanna Norry\, Janice Patrignani\, Leah Poller\, Mary Schwarzenberger\, Ashley Thomas\, Ann Vollum\, Shirley Wagner \nVirtual Exhibit:  \n \n  \nThe Fine Art of Denim Artist Statements \n \n*artists featured in virtual exhibit only. \nVirtual Opening Reception:\nJune 24\, 2021 at 7 p.m. via ZOOM
