media release: Communication is proud to announce Communication: Meaningful Connections, a group exhibition exploring a multitude of aspects of the theme ‘communication’ with Madison-area artists. The exhibition opens 3pm on Saturday May 28, 2022 at 2645 Milwaukee Street, Madison, Wisconsin.

Communication: Meaningful Connections brings together diverse artwork addressing Communication’s namesake through themes of connection, community, body language, symbols and colors, and miscommunication/silencing.  While successful communication connects people together and can provide a sense of belonging and understanding that fosters relationships and develops supportive communities, recent times highlight that not all are heard and reveals the detriments of miscommunication and silence.

From drawings and paintings to sculptures and sound art, the variety of media reflects the various methods of communication.  The opening reception and first week of the exhibition will have a special animated installation by the Marie Christine Kohler Fellows at the Wisconsin Institute for Discovery: Hong Huo and Kushin Mukherjee.

The exhibit is on display through Aug. 20. Current shop hours are Fridays 11am to 3pm and Saturdays 10am to 6pm.

Artists scheduled to include: aabaabikaawikwe/Kristin Klingman, A. Katz, Claire Lewandowski, DarRen Morris, David O. Williams, Dian/Diane Yao, Doug Fath, Ellen Wieland, Fern Kuban, Gregg Willard, Isabella Covert, Jerome Glenn, Juliana Gessner, Liz Sheer, Midori Samson, nibiiwakamigkwe, Paulina Ivanova, Ryan Swain, Salma Abdelwahab, Sandra Schoen, Sara Dusterhoeft, Sarah Gagnon, Sarah Giencke, Tess Klein, Violet Wong, Zach Johnson & Kohler Fellows: Hong Huo & Kushin Mukherjee.
