Mostly Sculpture (damn it)

I just recieved this press release and I thought I would share it with my readers:
(Santa Monica, CA – June 2009) For its summer group show, July 11 to August 29, Samuel Freeman will be exhibiting “Mostly Sculpture (damn it)”, a group show of (mostly) sculpture.
While looking for new painters for a planned group exhibition, Mr. Freeman accidentally accumulated sculptors instead. His plan for a ‘New Paintings’ show was soon smothered by the weight and brilliance of these unplanned and unsought sculptors. “Mostly Sculpture (damn it)” is the outcome.
The exhibition will still include several two-dimensional works to highlight the object quality and physical interaction of sculpture, but will remain dedicated to the absurd, the delicate, and the impossible within contemporary sculpture. The roster of artists is drawn from within the gallery’s history and from new sources across North America: Berg, Myers and Kozul join the gallery from New York; Ko from Washington; Farrow out of San Francisco; Rath, Redding and Squires from Los Angeles; and Hollinger from Boston.
Artists include:
The Reverend Ethan Acres
Tim Berg & Rebekah Myers
Al Farrow
George Herms
Steve Hollinger
Ewerdt Hilgemann
Kazuo Kadonaga
Jae Ko
Kristian Kozul
Jake Longstreth
Jessica Rath
