State of the Art/Art of the State
http://cameronartmuseum.com/state
Organized by the Cameron Art Museum, this exhibition focuses on contemporary art by artists currently living in, or native to, the state of North Carolina.
Artists are invited to bring a single work of art to be installed in the museum, delivering the work within a 24-hour period (between 5:00 pm Friday, May 6 and 5:00 pm Saturday, May 7, 2011). During this timeframe, an internationally renowned curator will be present to greet each artist and direct the exhibition installation. The design of this project provides any participating artist equal opportunity to have their work seen by all visiting curators.
