Works from the AIR Calame Academy
Community Projects from the Albright-Knox’s First Artist-in-Residence Program
August 13 – September 7, 2008
In June 2008, artist Ingrid Calame came to Buffalo to create art inspired by our community. Before her visit, we made art inspired by her work. Valley Community Center, Windermere School, Elmwood Village Charter School, and Gusto at the Gallery patrons participated in our four-part AIR Calame Academy. Participants created their own three-dimensional fantasy residency, created artwork from floor plans, participated in stain and tracing workshops, and contributed to our Welcome to Buffalo, Ingrid project, all of which is on view in this exhibition.
