OCTOBER 15 – DECEMBER 19, 2009: READY TO UNVEIL
6 Crawford Street, Newark, NJ. Free and open to the public Thursdays – Saturdays 12-6pm through December 19, 2009.

What if artists were in charge of stimulating the economy as well as our minds? “Ready to Unveil” aims to launch a nationwide campaign for public art in America. “Ready to Unveil” takes one city—Newark, NJ—and re-imagine it as an art gallery. Ideas for public art in public spaces have been submitted and juried by leading public artists and art experts from Creative Capital, New Jersey State Council on the Arts, and New Jersey Transit, Chakaia Booker, Willie Cole, Sean Elwood, Sheila McKoy and Tom Moran.

Fifteen artists are included in this exhibition: June Bisantz, Phillip Buehler, Nancy Ann Coyne, Lin Emery, Jerry Gant, Elizabeth Knowles, Ann LePore & Anibal Pella, Vera Manzi-Schacht, Gina Miccinilli, Beth Ann Morrison, Michael Reese, Mary Ellen Scherl, Laurinda, Stockwell, Tamas Szalczer and Kati Vilim.
