We, the People of the Land: A Story of People, Place and Space~ January 22 - March 31 /
This group exhibition is curated as a collaborative counterpoint to the LCC Presents “ETHEL’s Documerica” multimedia concert and highlights visual artists who are working in a variety of mediums
to explore America’s relationship to the land. Referencing “Project Documerica,”
a national photographic archive commissioned by the U.S. Environmental
Protection Agency in the 1970s, this contemporary exhibition interprets the
ways in which people’s lives and sense of place are shaped by the environment
through the lens of artists working in video, photography, sculpture, painting,
drawing and mixed media.
January 22 until March 31.
Public reception, March 12, 5-7pm, with a private viewing corresponding to the ETHEL’s Documerica
performance on March 13.

The Plasticene Exhibit at the Art Students League of Denver~ January 31st to March 15th 2020 /
Plastic touches every aspect of our lives. It is in clothing, housewares, toys, medical devices, vehicles and infrastructure. It coats our walls, transports our water, encases our food, fills our cavities, even prolongs our lives. It is such a hallmark of our time that geologists have joked that the current geological period, the Anthropocene, should be renamed the Plasticene. Yet the word “plastic” is equated with cheapness, both in quality of construction and value. Disposable things are plastic, cheap knock-offs are plastic. Why is this so? How has a material that in only seventy years has replaced all traditional materials in every application earned the reputation for being worthless? Shouldn’t it be the opposite? Shouldn’t it be revered?
In April of 2020, we will celebrate the 50-year anniversary of Earth Day, and it’s safe to say no one will be giving plastic any accolades. As we awaken to the fact that plastic’s long afterlife creates enormous problems like the Pacific Garbage Patch and microplastic pollution, we come face to face with the reality that plastic’s honeymoon period is over. But abandoning unrealistic ideas of life without plastic is not conceding defeat. There will be new generations of plastics — ones that solve the serious environmental problems posed by the current generation — and the Plasticene will no longer be a snarky punchline but an earnest description of this period of innovation and invention surrounding humanity’s most versatile material.

A prevalent element all artist studios have in common is a chair. No matter the type, style, or medium of work created by the artist, the studio chair is an important tool for their creative practice. In this exhibition, artwork by twenty nine artists can be viewed while sitting in the artist’s studio chair, which will be situated in front of their work. While viewing artwork from the artist’s own studio chair, visitors can ponder each piece and hopefully gain a glimpse of the artist’s vision. Jung has been selected as a one of 29 artists to participate.

Jung Title: “It’s a lovely piece, too bad we couldn’t find a mark”
Manufacturer: Hermès, Cartier, and IKEA
Materials: 100% cast sterling silver
Weight: 756.8 oz.
This piece is comprised of 1,865,400,000 individual grains of silver sand, harvested by a reclusive tribe of mermen from the bottom of the Mariana Trench. Once the grains were collected, using 24 carat gold tweezers, they were transported to the surface in thimble sized buckets carried by expertly trained narwhal, by the tip of their tusk.
