Arterial Change

Renee Gertler (San Francisco, CA)

Part of SWAP

Arterial Change, June 23 ? August 5, 2005, is Gertler's interactive sculpture that explores the ways in which we are all implicated in the destruction of our internal and external environments. Her work demonstrates how we can direct the ways in which we affect our environment with simple mindfulness. During her residency, Renee gave a presentation on her past work at Max S.

Her gallery talk on Friday, June 24, included information on her past works, but focused on her current project and experiences. Poet and critic Gregory Crosby dove into Arterial Change for his critical essay on Gertler's work.
