Artist Talk: R Eric McMaster January 31, 2013

Join us for a gallery talk with Richmond artist R Eric McMaster on the gallery's current exhibition The Obstruction of Action.

Through sculptural, photographic and video works, R Eric McMaster presents documentation and artifacts of sports events in which athletes have performed under unusual conditions. By intensifying the viewer’s awareness of the conventions and agreements to which the athletes are bound through their participation in an organized competition, The Obstruction of Action explores issues of complicity, vulnerability and social hierarchy.

Admission is free and refreshments and a cash bar will be available during this event. Doors open at 6, talk begins at 6:30. For more information, please visit www.1708gallery.org
