The MAC | The McKinney Avenue Contemporary calls for submissions for its annual membership show. Gala Reception August 2 5:30-7:30pm. The Annual Membership Exhibition is one of the cornerstones of the spirit and mission of the MAC – providing a place for creative expression and freedom and a vigorous dialogue between artists and patrons of the arts. The 2008 Membership Exhibition also includes several collaborative works that will focus the creative energy of a group of artists.

 

Liliana Bloch, The MAC Director pro tem states, “2008 at the MAC has been marked by a fresh and invigorating energy as evidenced by the outstanding response to our first two exhibits of the year. I believe this Annual Membership Exhibition has the possibility of being one of the most stimulating Membership Exhibitions to date. Food has been the subtext for love and war throughout recorded history. Are we the masters of the table or is food seducing us? Undoubtedly the artist view will be very diverse!”

The inspiration for the 14th Annual Membership Exhibition is the interconnectedness of art, the anthropology of food and drink and its link to the sustenance and celebration of life and its mysteries. The experience and the art of gastronomy have inspired scores of artists, writers and filmmakers.
