Rock, Paper, Scissors Exhibit at Air, Space and Fe Gallery

Check out Pop City for a write up/more info here.

Rock, Paper, Scissors
opening April 2

one art exhibition
three unique galleries
three distinct neighborhoods

April 2 through May 23, 2010


Rock, Paper, Scissors is an art exhibition linking three unique galleries located in three distinct Pittsburgh neighborhoods and featuring local, national, and international artists.

Each venue will focus on one of the three titular materials—Rock at SPACE in the Cultural District, encompassing work ranging from video to installation art; Paper at Artists Image Resource (AIR) on the historic North Side, presenting intricate paper cut-outs, sculpture, and more; and Scissors at cutting-edge Fe Arts Gallery in Lawrenceville, Pittsburgh’s newest arts scene, featuring all things sharp and some shiny, including electric and kinetic elements.

The exhibition title reflects the playful competition of the children’s game that inspired it. As competitors, the three galleries take turns winning. The triangle of galleries, like the triangle of rivers, represents a spirit of cooperation among the collaborating participants and a linking of diverse neighborhoods that characterize the city.

Artist Alexi Morissey on the Pittsburgh Art Conundrum

I wanted to point out what Alexi Morrisey had to say about the notion of Pittsburgh not acting from within when it comes to the talent which exists here. This quote is from a Pop City Q and A found here.

Pittsburgh constantly denies the reality of its own qualities because, no matter the meetings of world leaders or number of rings on our collective steel-curtain fingers, we seem not to be asked to the dance. That inward anger must be declared as unacceptable; our civic pride must be manifested as a radical localized chest-thump. The city's sense of its self must be determined by itself and for itself, such that success within the city's own culture becomes a measure beyond that of success in the eyes of "foreign" thinkers. Provincial? Yes. But until our self-satisfaction reaches a pressure level equal to or greater than that of the outer, uncaring world, and thus secession a possibility for self-determination, provincialism is a weapon, not a weakness.

Alexi's upcoming exhibit will be at the New Hazlett Theater with a work that has been developed there called "Take A Letter". It premiers May 27-29 and goes on the road from there.

Pittsburgh Goes Google High Speed Internet Fiber Network

One more day to register your support!

No city in America could be a better place to investigate the potential of ultrafast Internet connections than Pittsburgh. Google Inc. need look no further as it tries to find the right community where it would deliver Internet services directly to homes at speeds of one gigabit per second. Pittsburgh has innovators who have pioneered computer networks and Internet applications, it has a government poised to support rapid deployment of infrastructure and it has Pittsburghers with a diverse set of needs, opinions and interests.

The City of Pittsburgh, working with local universities and other organizations, is preparing a proposal to convince Google to select Pittsburgh for this exciting new experiment. But Pittsburgh won't be selected if Google doesn't hear from you, the potential users of this new ultrafast network.

Here's how you can help. This site and Google's formal response site provide ways for individuals and organizations to express their ideas and their support for this project. Please check the sections below to learn more about how you can help. And please do so now. Google wants your response by March 26. Pittsburgh needs your response!

What does this mean to Pittsburgh? Learn more about the Google project.
