Above the Fold: New Expressions in Origami

Sun, 03/05/2017 - Sun, 05/28/2017
Above the Fold is the first traveling exhibition to bring origami installations from around the world to North American audiences. Paper is transformed into breathtaking sculpture, large-scale installations, and conceptual works that express contemporary social, political, and aesthetic ideas.
Nine international artists push the boundaries of paper as a medium to create bold, provocative works: Erik Demaine and Martin Demaine (Canada/USA), Vincent Floderer (France), Miri Golan (Israel), Paul Jackson (UK/Israel), Dr. Robert J. Lang (USA), Yuko Nishimura (Japan), Richard Sweeney (UK) and Jiangmei Wu (China/USA). These artists redefine a traditional Japanese craft as a modern global genre, inventing unexpected forms of artistic expression. Their works can be found in the permanent collections of prominent museums such as the Smithsonian American Art Museum's Renwick Gallery and the Museum of Modern Art, New York.
Miri Golan will be there at the opening on 3/5/2017
