Judy Garvey’s talent for revealing the subtle exchanges between objects – whether tea cups or commited partners – is inviting almost to the point of seduction. Judy romances her subjects and their relationship to each other, including the imperfections. Her delicate treatment of each imperfection is enticing, and makes each work feel vulnerable and real. The Reveal unveils a quiet beauty in how people and objects connect. Artist Reception: Sunday, December 3rd 5pm-8pm

For four weeks this summer, Right Window will explore how the framework of artist residency might work within a public rather than aprivileged or private space as exhibition. Local artist Anne Colvin, whose art practice encompasses many media including photography and video as well as curating and publishing, has been invited to occupy Right Window as artist-in-residence.
Visitors are encouraged to meet with Colvin during the time of her residency and witness her production process. Colvin will organize a series of events to coincide with her time at Right Window. These will be announced via email.
Right Window’s Summer 2009 Artist Residency is a project initiated and organized by Karla Milosevich and Chuck Mobley. Support for Right Window has been provided by Southern Exposures Alternative Exposure Grant Program.
