Anne Schaefer: What you couldn't plan for

May 4 – May 27, 2012
PHILADELPHIA- Tiger Strikes Asteroid is pleased to announce the opening of its May exhibition, What you couldn't plan for, featuring works by TSA member Anne Schaefer. This will be Schaeferʼs second solo exhibition with the gallery.
May seems perfect timing for Anne Schaeferʼs new prints and approach to object making. The works in this exhibition are a departure from her recent installations that are rooted in years of rigorous study that employ finely tuned, precise decisions concerning color and form. The new works breath fresh air into the remnants that mark her studio process. The works are like Spring cuttings, arranged in a vase that offer the viewer a glimpse into the artistʼs atelier.
A visit to Schaeferʼs workspace reveals ghost like prints on walls and a collection of textured tape clusters. In her hands, by-products are transformed into delicately bundled, layered images. Pedestal-like elements grow roots and break away from rectilinear confines and flirt with more complex rhizomatic geometry. They are reminders of past works that have been grafted to each other, creating new possibilities for growth and expansion.
