MFA Conversations Part II
July 17th, 2009, 7-10PM
Exhibition Runs July 17 through September 11, 2009
Artist Talks: July 25 and August 22, 2-4PM
I-5 Gallery, 2100 North Main Street, Suite A-9, Los Angeles, CA 90031
I-5 Gallery in the Brewery Artist Colony presents "MFA Conversations Part II":
1. Conversation: (NOUN) 1. An informal spoken exchange of thoughts and feelings; a familiar talk.
2. Social intercourse; close association.
3. Rare. Close acquaintance, as with an object of study.
I-5 Gallery is pleased to announce the second in the "MFA Conversations" series of shows being offered this summer through the fall of 2009. MFA Conversations Part II continues to explore the abundance of MFA programs in the Southern California area from San Diego to Santa Barbara. Despite their shared geography, these programs represent a range of diverse offerings, foci, students, and work. While such diversity yields richness, it can also have an isolating effect on students from these institutions, who do not have many opportunities to interact in the greater southern California arts community.

Queen's Nails Projects, 3191 Mission St., San Francisco, California
In 1985, the San Francisco Board of Supervisors backed a resolution designating San Francisco a sanctuary city-one of the first in the US-for certain Central American refugees. The resolution decreed that police, schools, and health and social-service agencies were forbidden from assisting INS agents during potential investigations and arrests of Salvadoran and Guatemalan refugees. Though the legislation was revised in the 90s and has been broadly and variously interpreted since its initial enactment, it remains in effect. Nevertheless, in the wake of federal policies implemented after 9/11, San Francisco began to see an increased number of federal immigration raids, leading to growing fear and paranoia not only among undocumented immigrants, but among legal residents as well.

Quint Contemporary Art Gallery, 7739 Fay Avenue, La Jolla, CA
(alley entrance only between Kline and Silverado)
The work of San Diego’s top tier contemporary artists hasn’t been seen in the same place at the same time since 1985, when the La Jolla Museum of Contemporary Art presented “A San Diego Exhibition: Forty-Two Emerging Artists.”
Quint Contemporary Art brings this long drought to an end with HOMING IN: An Exhibition of 50 San Diego Artists. The show presents paintings, photographs, video and sculpture; features abstraction and representation; and offers moods ranging from hot to cool - all in formats less than 24” wide due to the limited space available.
Transborder California Digital Mapping Project Workshop - May 27 '09 - UC San Diego - Atkinson Hall

Transborder California Digital Mapping Project
Workshop May 27 2009, 10:30am - 6pm
Atkinson Hall, Rm 4004 / Cal(it)2, UC San Diego, 9500 Gilman Dr., La Jolla, California 92093
This collaborative initiative gathers researchers in the humanities, arts, social sciences, and computer engineering to share diverse research of the Transborder California region. New technologies in digital communication will be harnessed to create a shared platform to share divergent data, perspectives, epistemologies, and agendas with the purpose of generating a dynamic layered mapping of the region across time and space.
The scope of Transborder California is the historical and geographic region that encompasses the bordered region that in 1848 divided Alta California and Baja California between the nation-states of the United States and Mexico. The project acknowledges the contours of administrative geography and political rule but is not driven by the political calculus of the administrative geography of the Spanish Empire, Mexico, or the United States or subsidiary regional governments of San Diego County, Imperial County and Baja Norte. However, the research inquiry attends to the intensifying traffic, circulation, and barriers over the 160 years.

“Postcards are purveyors of visual information. Often times the brief missive on the stamped side of the card references the image on the other side “Wish you were here!” or “X” marks the spot. It’s a short cut and a snap shot Postcards are, so to speak, the original “Text Message”; a way to say that you are thinking of someone; a friendly wave at a distance. At this point postcards may seem anachronistic; a vestigial tail on snail mail. But, like vinyl records, super-8 movies and V-8 engines, they have a resilient charm and poetic resonance that seems to resist the march of insistent progress.” Artists: Eleanor Antin, BULBO, Randall Christopher, Nina Katchadourian, Wendell Kling, Erik Knudsen with Kelly Coyne, Jean Lowe, Hugo Lugo, Kim MacConnel, Irma Sofia Poeter, Jamex & Einar de la Torre, Allison Wiese
