the North Carolina Museum of Art and Penland School of Crafts present 0 to 60

Beginning this month, the North Carolina Museum of Art and Penland School of Crafts present 0 to 60: The Experience of Time through Contemporary Art, an exhibition featuring thirty-two international artists with over sixty works of art blurring the boundaries between art, craft, and design. The partnership includes a fully illustrated catalog that documents the projects at both the NCMA and Penland. 

Seventeen new works have been created for 0 to 60 and five North Carolina artists and eleven artists affiliated with Penland are featured in the exhibition. This is the first collaboration between these two highly-recognized North Carolina art institutions.

"Focusing on the concept of time and its influence on art, the exhibition looks at how time is used as form, content, and material, and how art is used to represent, evoke, manipulate, or transform time," said NCMA Chief Curator and Curator of Contemporary Art Linda Dougherty. "It's especially notable to have Penland involved in the exhibition, since 'time' is one of the critical resources their facilities provide for the artists who come to the school for a creative retreat where they can work literally around the clock."

The artists represented in the exhibition are Caetano de Almeida, Dan Bailey, Walead Beshty, Jana Brevick, Jim Campbell, Paul Chan, David Chatt, Kyoung Ae Cho, Sonya Clark, Alison Collins, Tara Donovan, Dan Estabrook, John Gerrard, Felix Gonzalez-Torres, Hoss Haley, Tim Hawkinson, Lisa Hoke, Tehching Hsieh, Richard Hughes, Anne Lemanski, Jeff Chien-Hsing Liao, Beth Lipman, Rafael Lozano-Hemmer, Vera Lutter, Peter Matthews, David Shapiro, Tom Shields, Jennifer Steinkamp, Do Ho Suh, Stacy Lynn Waddell, Michael Wesely, and Bill Viola.

The exhibit opens on March 24 and continues through August 11, 2013.
