IN PRAISE OF SHADOWS at CABIN GALLERY in Chicago, IL
Lydia Greer: In Praise of Shadows will open at Cabin on Sunday, April 8, 2012.
 
 
Cabin is pleased to announce its inaugural exhibition, In Praise of Shadows, featuring new sculptural and projected work by Bay Area artist Lydia Greer. 
 
In Praise of Shadows comprises Greer’s recent investigations into the projected image, cut paper work and cast shadows. This body of work draws inspiration from the material history of film, philosophy of mediated images as well as the practices of German spiritualist and inventor of kindergarten, Friedrich Froebel. Utilizing works on paper in conjunction with lamps and projections, Greer interprets Froebel’s geometric pattern-based pedagogies intended for children and recasts them as fragile invocations of the handmade. The labor-intensive cut paper designs are used as lenses to cast shadows from projected videos and light.  
 
Please join us for a reception with the artist on April 8 from 4-7pm.
Cabin is a home gallery located in Chicago, IL. Cabin provides artists with a dedicated gallery in an alternative space context for experimental and occasional exhibitions.
