5/18/2005  SAVANNAH, GA. — The Savannah College of Art and Design presents “In House,” an exhibition influenced by skateboard and street culture, May 18–June 28, in the Red Gallery. A reception for the exhibition will be held Thursday, May 19, 6 p.m., at the gallery. The reception will feature a 7 p.m. lecture by Mike Grimes, curator for “32-Inch Canvas,” a traveling collection of skateboard decks from Canada. “In House” showcases art and design influenced by skateboard and street culture and gives and insider’s look into a world that has managed to defy the boundaries between art and product, design and function. Skate and street art are responsible for setting many of the trends that define mainstream pop culture, from advertising to fashion to video games. The exhibition features work by SCAD alumni and faculty, as well as “32-Inch Canvas” and Asylum, an established graffiti artist in Los Angeles. “In House celebrates artwork that was once considered a “lowbrow” art form (tagging walls and wheat-pasting posters) but is now finding its way into museums and fine art galleries.
