LANDSCAPE REMIX 
Curated by: Rod Malin 
Opening Reception: Friday, June 22, 2012 7pm-10pm 
Landscape Remix features a group of contemporary artists whose work focuses on transcending historic expectations inherent in the depiction of the classical landscape. Even though the landscape is regarded just as influential and significantly vital as in the past, artists have become disconnected from the term “landscape” and any association with the word itself. Disassociating from rhetorical art terms can be sign of retreat to a singular need to redefine art, creating a proxy for individual understanding. The authority to substitute images for words is exemplified in the pictorial dominance of the digital age. This technological trend has influenced the artist’s struggle to redefine place in relation to self, reinforcing an anti-labeling taxonomy. 
Works By: Alex Gingrove, Lesser Gonzalez Alvarez, Jay Hardman, Paddy Johnson, Ron Lambert, Keith Lea, Alan Resnick 
Landscape Remix: June 22, 2012 through August 4, 2012 
Hours: Saturdays 1-5pm & Wednesdays 5-7pm or by appointment 
1826 FLEET STREET BALTIMORE MD 21231
