Ready. Fire! Aim.
Hall Art Foundation: May 6 – November 26, 2017
BCA Center: April 21 – July 9, 2017
Ready. Fire! Aim. a collaboration between the Hall Art Foundation and Burlington City Arts and is curated by DJ Hellerman.
Inspired by Andy and Christine Hall’s art collecting philosophy, this group show explores the psychology of impulsive action and strategic thinking. Using the creative process as a point of departure, Ready. Fire! Aim. brings together artworks addressing issues of violence and decay, gestural abstraction and linear precision, as well as the sensible and the absurd. BCA Center’s presentation will include work by six emerging to nationally recognized Vermont-based artists, while the Hall Art Foundation’s presentation will feature a selection of paintings, sculptures, and photographs by internationally recognized contemporary artists.
