Homeland curated
by Colette Copeland
The term “Homeland” has
historically been defined as a specific physical place –one’s
native land or a region/territory that is closely identified
with a particular people or ethnic group, connoting nostalgia,
yearning and alignment with personal identity. Since the development
of the US Homeland Security Act, this definition is called into
question. In thinking about this issue, I was interested in
how video artists question/challenge/explore/redefine the notion
of homeland in an age of in/security. – Colette Copeland

Radiologic
Images
In conjunction with The
Medical Film Symposium, Art @ International House
features an exhibit of medical photography by InLiquid Art +
Design Executive Director Rachel Zimmerman and John Boyko.
These two heads are of
infants, without any pathology. Enlarged to 50” x 50” the skulls
become something quite different. Not only are they out of scale
and larger than life, they are profoundly beautiful. X-Rays
are a dying technology in neuroradiology; once so common and
now out of date. These images are also a combination of the
old and new - skulls of infants who are now adults printed on
an older medium (canvas) using a newer printing method (archival
ink jet print). – John Boyko and Rachel Zimmerman
