FUNCTION

ClearStory Arts / 1673 S. Holtzclaw Ave. November 7 - 30th

What function does art have in our society? How do we approach the practice of art beyond a visual commodity and move into the deeper need to connect with the emotions, experiences, and thoughts that art can invoke? How do we look at an item like a cutting board, a table, a quilt or even a well turned cup and think of it as art outside its use? Can the use of handmade pieces romanticize our lives, bringing us closer to small joys in everyday existence?

Join ClearStory Arts this November as we explore the word function as it relates to art. What is art to you? What function does it have in your life? We have the honor of sharing 15 artists' work with you that you may view, purchase, and bring home for your own use.
