The 2007 ITE Program:
allTURNatives, the twelfth annual exhibition featuring the multi-disciplinary residents of the Wood Turning Center's International Turning Exchange (ITE), presents the diverse work that artists produce before and during the residency. Three-dimensional work is accompanied by photographs, artists' statements, photographs, films, and performances depicting their personal and professional experiences and their evolution during the residency. Open Studio Day on July 14th at the University of the Arts, the ITE residents opened the wood shop in order to share ideas and techniques, discuss their experiences, and analyze the ways the residency has impacted their work.
Applications for the 2009 and 2010 ITE program are due on October 1, 2007. For further information on the ITE program and the application process, visit www.woodturningcenter.org.
