The Metropolitan State College of Denver, Center for Visual Art presents "Reclamation," an exhibition where the mundane is beautiful, the industrial is refined and function gives over to form. Used cardboard, discarded and splintered pallets, last year's billboard ads, emptied beer cans and film cartridges - all destined for the wasteland see a rebirth as raw material in art making. Detritus of our consumer culture, once serving a functional purpose have been reclaimed as fodder for new formal narratives.
Plus Gallery artist Jon Rietofors is featured in the exhibition, along with other excellent talents Sabine Aell, Brian Cavanaugh, Terry Maker, Yumi Janairo Roth and Ann Weber
