Sum of Its Parts
Artist Reception | Friday, August 1, 2008, 6-8PM One challenge in applying the Law of Identity to an entity is in determining what exactly an entity is. It is important to note, though, that identities are based on the identities of their constituent parts, and how they are combined together. The identity of an entity composed of other entities can be fully explained by reference to the identity of the building blocks, and how they are interacting. A house can be explained by reference to the wood, metal, and glass that are combined in that particular way to form the house. Swarm Gallery is proud of its constituent parts, the gallery artists that form its exhibition program. Now in it's 3rd year, the gallery continues to define and identify itself, working with and bringing in new artists to present a combination of work evocative of it's curatorial taste. This show presents a selection of work by the gallery artists, existing and forthcoming.
