The movement of water has become increasingly important in the work of Brazilian artist Sandra Cinto, from churning seascapes and rhythmic ocean waves to the graceful cascade of glacial passage. In this immersive installation, she channels the latter to cultivate the contemplation of time and being – employing delicate washes of diluted paint to transform this room into a multi-sensory sanctuary. In this room, Cinto activates the sensory spectrum through guided verbal meditations and soft soundscapes presented via headphones.

The Contemporary Arts Center (CAC) is proud to launch Audio Tour by Cincinnati-based artist and professor Britni Bicknaver. Under the guise of an audio guide museums typically employ to present references and objective information to visitors, Bicknaver presents a surreal hybrid that lyrically blends fact and fantasy. In concert with self-composed music, song, meandering meditations, obscure chronicles, mathematical formulae and wordplay, she weaves a surreal map of this center and its colorful history.

Throughout her career, Brazilian artist Sandra Cinto has developed a rich vocabulary of symbols and lines to create lyrical landscapes that swirl between fantasy and reality. Using drawing as her point of departure, Cinto evokes mesmerizing environments including turbulent seascapes, swirling rainstorms and celestial skies.

For inspiration she draws upon Japanese ukiyo-e prints and Hokusai’s iconic The Great Wave off Kanagawa, as well as European Romanticism and dramatic scenes such as Théodore Géricault’s 1818 painting The Raft of the Medusa, which depicts a famous sea disaster. Cinto also engages with her surrounding architecture on a frequent basis, immersing the viewer in a sea of waves to evoke the illusion of a weightless, spiraling universe. In so doing, she evokes stories of human hardship and redemption, as well as a larger metaphor for the human odyssey and our relationship with the environment.

Celebrating the 30th anniversary of the Cincinnati Gateway sculpture created as the entry to Cincinnati’s Bicentennial Commons in 1988, award-winning artist and sculptor Andrew Leicester (Minneapolis, MN) returns to create a new work that revisits the once controversial public sculpture that went on to launch a million flying pigs.

Leicester’s new installation will be complemented by photo documentation of the Gateway project along with earlier and later public projects (both completed and unrealized) that he proposed in the United States and abroad.

Today, we can’t escape time; our phones, tablets, smart watches, and social media feeds remind us constantly. It wasn’t always so. In early nineteenth-century Kentucky, clocks and watches were a costly investment—especially tall case, “grandfather” clocks. Making Time, the first exhibition devoted to Kentucky tall clocks, will bring together more than twenty outstanding examples of these towering creations. When shown side-by-side, the clocks reveal the distinctive hands of many Kentucky cabinetmakers and clockmakers; illustrate the hidden world of gears, bells, weights, and pendulums that kept a clock running and chiming; and record the complex webs of craft, taste, and trade needed to make these practical works of art.

This first-of-its-kind exhibition will use the clocks themselves as well as new research to consider the following:

What are the clues that insiders use to understand Kentucky tall case clocks and connect them to certain places and makers?

What made up a tall case clock and how did it work? What do the clock works look like and how do they operate?

What types of artisans were involved in making a tall case clock and what were their jobs?

Who would have used tall case clocks and where would they have been used?

Filmed in one take and played in the reverse, this captivating and ambitious work by filmmaker Ben Russell, titled River Rites, is an exercise in what the artist called “psychedelic ethnography.” However, far from functioning as an objective document, this film works aggressively against the notion of representing an ethnographic ‛other’.
