SUMMARY:Discipline and Distraction–Opening Reception
DESCRIPTION:Discipline and Distraction is a body of work by Devin Owsley-Aquilia inspired by her transition into Chicago\, into isolation and a new understanding of what it means to be present. “To accept challenge and change\, I use material to guide myself through these mental obstacles to reach a place of poise and clarity. Layered images of abstracted landscapes derived from personal experiences\, place\, relationship\, behavior and interaction are inscribed into copper plates\, informing the basis of which my work manifests. The importance of line and act of carving speak to a growing dialogue between material and my person as well my emotional attachment to place.” The image transferred into a physical print serves as an artifact\, a portrayal of momentary consciousness that nurtured self-discipline and potential. \nDiscipline and Distraction will kick-off with a Gallery Talk with Devin Owsley-Aquilia at 6:00 p.m. on March 4\, followed by the Opening Reception. \nDiscipline and Distraction is one of three Residency Exhibitions\, a series of solo exhibitions that feature the 2015 Spudnik Press Resident Artists and the new work they each produced through the Spudnik Press Residency Program. \nDevin Owsley-Aquilia is a visual artist with great interests in printmaking\, drawing\, fibers and painting. Originally from Dayton\, Ohio\, she moved to Milwaukee to attend the Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design where she received her BFA in printmaking  in 2015. Her work in print involves various abstracted representations of anatomical form\, material and growth that are used as personal symbols of progression and transition of identity. She has recently relocated to Chicago to further challenge her work in printmaking. \nThe exhibition runs through March 26th\, 2016. Gallery hours are Tuesday through Friday\, noon to 5pm\, or by appointment. \n

SUMMARY:Type Sort Party!
DESCRIPTION:Calling Spudnik Members! Volunteers! Type Enthusiasts! Spudnik Press Cooperative is hosting the “Type Sort Party” of the century. \nJust what is a Type Sort Party? It’s a chance to hang out with fellow print people and help whip our letterpress area into shape. We’ve recently acquired a whole new type cabinet of lead type\, bags of unsorted spacing and brand new type still wrapped up in brown paper and twine. We have new california job cases to replace drawers that don’t fit in our cabinet. And after hosting dozens of classes and workshops\, more than a few drawers are a little out of sorts. Literally. \nMany hands make light work. This Type Sort Party will allow us to tidy up our supplies and pave the way for a letterpress studio that is more efficient and easier to use. \nWhy should you join the fun? First of all\, it is an opportunity to get to know fellow Spudnik friends and family. Second\, we need your help in making Spudnik the best it can be!Third\, we are making this the fanciest Type Sort Party be providing plenty of drinks and a smorgasbord of snacks! Finger foods and lead type don’t play well\, so we’re getting creative by making sure ALL of the snacks are on skewers! What more could you want? \nNo experience necessary. Please RSVP to Studio Manager\, Nicolette Ross at info@spudnikpress.org.
