Juror: DeWitt Cheng, Art Writer and Curator says: Road Maps hopes to survey current art production dealing with the state of the nation and the world in an era of both dizzying development and crumbling neglect, both of which, given current political conditions, appear to be part of the new social contract.

The pieces chosen will bring another provocative and insightful show to the walls of Gallery Route One and hopefully, move the dialogue along.

ABOUT GALLERY ROUTE ONE

The artists at GRO believe that art can be a powerful force for change, and that artists have much to contribute to the dialogue about critical problems we face as a society. Our Mission: To originate and present contemporary art exhibitions, educational programs and community outreach in order to inspire people to experience the world in new ways.

GRO was founded by 25 artists in 1983, and currently maintains a membership of 20 plus artists. Our Board of Directors is drawn from interested community members, including artists. The organization supports two exhibition programs: member exhibitions and Project Space exhibitions, featuring guest artists. The Annex, a small, interior space also exhibits work by member artists.

GRO presents art in all media, including installation, but does not regularly show crafts. Other GRO events include panel discussions, slide talks and two community outreach programs: Artists In the Schools and the Latino Photography Project. Artist members support the organization and its projects by paying monthly dues and by doing volunteer work, including staffing the gallery. GRO is also supported by its Partners in Art, contributions from the community and the West Marin Fund. Visit us at www.galleryrouteone.org.
