THE SLOW CLUB
new works by ANNA CAMPBELL
JANUARY 29-30, 2012

Opening Reception: Sunday, Jan 29, 4-8pm
Open Hours: Monday, Jan 30, noon-4pm



THE SLOW CLUB is a collection of work that investigates lost queer spaces. Objects and ephemera, including bar mirrors and matchbooks, provide traces of real and imagined histories, encouraging viewers to reconsider their relationship to a recent and radical past. Concurrently with the exhibit at ACRE, elements of The Slow Club will be on view at Parlour on Clark, re-situating the work into the context of a queer social space. Parlour is open 3pm – 2am Sundays, and is located on 6341 N. Clark St 60626.

ANNA CAMPBELL received her M.F.A. in art at the University of Wisconsin-Madison and her B.A. in studio art from the College of Wooster. She lives in Grand Rapids, Michigan and teaches courses on sculpture, installation and curating at Grand Valley State University. Her research focuses on queered representations of heroic masculinity through video, sculpture, and installation art.
