About the Exhibition: Da Vinci Art Alliance is proud to partner with Craft Movie Club to present “Materialize,” an exhibition that showcases sixteen artists, all working in their chosen material of ceramics, wood, fiber, metal and glass to respond to James Whale’s 1933 classic, “The Invisible Man.”
In the film, scientist Jack Griffin uses an extraction from an obscure flower—originally used to bleach textiles—to render himself invisible. How, “Materialize” asks, do the artists on display mirror the scientist at the heart of the film? How do they manipulate the natural world to transform their raw materials into powerful, symbolic objects? And do they, in performing their craft, ever transform themselves?
Materialize will be on view in Gallery 1 at Da Vinci Art Alliance starting October 31 until November 17. The opening reception will take place on Saturday, November 2, from 4-7 pm.
