SUMMARY:LENS
DESCRIPTION:LENS is a multimedia installation by Gary Passanise\, one of many local artists who have studio space inside City Museum’s halls. \n\n\n\nPassanise says of this installation\, “The images in this exhibit are an interactive montage of photo transparencies combined with the iconic views and activity from the fourth-floor windows of City Museum. \n\n\n\n“In September of 2024 I attended an artist residency in Southwestern France and exhibited drawings and small sculpture*. The memory of events captured through the lens of photography are merely one aspect of constructing this exhibit. While memory is a significant catalyst for visual art\, what remains fluid in the content of this body of work is the continual changes both from the light\, time of day and the always evolving vistas and activity from the west side of the Museum. \n\n\n\n“The title ‘Lens’ refers specifically to layering the experience of new and unusual vistas during my travels to Barcelona Spain and the consequent train ride documentation to and from the residency in Southwestern France.” \n\n\n\nExhibit DatesFriday\, Jan. 17 – Sunday\, Mar. 2\, 2025 \n\n\n\nOpening ReceptionFriday\, Jan. 31 from 5pm–7pm \n\n\n\nThe residency and this exhibit are funded by The Regional Arts Commission\, Artist Support Grant 2024 and City Museum. \n\n\n\n4th Floor near Overflow Café. Included with General Admission or Member Pass.

SUMMARY:Dome Study (Infinity)
DESCRIPTION:Amber Dohrenwend is an American artist based in Marquette\, Michigan. She constructs post-consumer cardboard sculptures\, costuming and installations with soft\, organic curves and textures. Her work directs viewers’ attention to the vast potential of a humble material that is often overlooked. She often works with nothing more than cardboard\, a pair of scissors and a stapler. \n\n\n\n“I’m known for using cardboard in an unexpected way\, and I love to think about the differences between the way things are made in nature and the human world. I love the flexibility and impermanence of natural architecture\, the way things grow\, move and change with the seasons. I also love putting people inside my work. That’s why I love co-creating installations with public participation. There’s a feeling of possibility that ignites a person’s creative agency. That’s what I’m always shooting for. To get people to start asking\, “What if?” and to be at the heart of a feeling of transformation.” \n\n\n\nExhibit DatesFriday\, Feb. 7 – Friday\, Mar. 7\, 2025 \n\n\n\nOpening ReceptionFriday\, Feb. 7 from 5pm–8pm \n\n\n\nWorkshops with the artistSaturday\, Feb. 8 from 12pm–2pm and 4pm–6pmSunday\, Feb. 9 from 12pm–2pm and 4pm–6pm \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n3rd Floor between Skateless Park and Toddler Town. Materials will be provided\, and guests are encouraged to participate in creating a cardboard environment throughout the exhibit. Included with General Admission or Member Pass.

SUMMARY:Spindles in the City
DESCRIPTION:If you’ve been to City Museum\, you’ve probably seen the uniquely colorful spinning posts along the rails of the main staircase\, mezzanine\, and second floor. \n\n\n\nIf you’re familiar with the City Museum lore\, you’re probably aware that those iconic spindles came with the building — they were conveyor belt rollers\, from when our building was an International Shoe Company warehouse. \n\n\n\nAnd if you’ve taken a closer look at those spindles anytime recently… you could probably tell that they need some TLC. \n\n\n\nWe asked our friends at The Regional Arts Commission of St. Louis to help us recruit some artists to re-paint the spindles\, and we want you to get in on the fun too! You don’t have to be artistically inclined to paint a spindle\, so don’t be shy. If painting isn’t your thing\, come down for the vibes and take in the talent and creativity we have here in STL. \n\n\n\nTuesday\, Feb. 25 5pm–9pm \n\n\n\nFeatured Local Artists: \n\n\n\n\nFatou Kane\n\n\n\nZachary Chasnoff / Simiya Sudduth\n\n\n\nRobert Armbrister\n\n\n\nCarolyn Lewis\n\n\n\nJohn Harrington\n\n\n\nMcCrae\n\n\n\nDavid Ruggeri\n\n\n\nBen Hanvy\n\n\n\nAyanna Thompson\n\n\n\n\nMust be 21+ with valid ID. A portion of the ticket proceeds will go to support The Regional Arts Commission of St. Louis. \n\n\n\nPainter ($30)\n\nSpectator ($20)\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\nEach ‘Painter’ ticket allows you to paint one spindle. We will provide paint and other supplies — please do not bring your own materials. Artwork must be appropriate for all ages. No text or logos. City Museum reserves the right to alter or remove any design at any time. Each person will get at least one hour to complete their spindle\, and all artwork must be completed by the end of the event time. Start times will be staggered to allow all participants fair access to space and supplies.
