Offsite Exhibitions

Gwen Gutwein

Specifically developed for small museums, libraries, non-profit galleries, and community centers, these exhibits are diverse and engaging to provoke thought and provide meaning to your audiences.  We deliver each exhibit to your site and pick it up after the closing date.  There is no rental fee for the exhibit. If you need us to install and dismount the exhibit there is a minimum fee of $100.
Exhibits available in 2009 – 2010:
    •    Christo and Jeanne-Claude: Natural Interventions – this photographic documentary exhibit explores several of the breathtaking installations of artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude, in which their application of materials into the natural environment create dramatically beautiful collaborations.
    •    The Heritage Barns of Indiana: First Fifty– this exhibit of oil and acrylic paintings by respected landscapist Gwen Gutwein, pays homage to a disappearing aspect of the Indiana landscape: its great old barns.
    •    Ernest Withers: I Am A Man – African-American photographer Ernest Withers was working in the center of the Civil Rights movement and in this powerful series, he captured the Memphis Sanitation Workers’ strike led by Dr. King in 1968. 
    •    Reflections On The Civil War – photographer Robert Morris has spent several years capturing emotionally evocative images of the historic battlefields of the Civil War. This exhibit features some of the most historically significant sites of the War as they are preserved today.
    •     Children of Burma - Fort Wayne is home to the largest concentration of Burmese immigrants in the United States. Since the early 1990’s photojournalist Steve Linsenmayer has been working with and documenting the Burmese community in Fort Wayne.  In 2006, Linsenmayer traveled to Burma and Thailand to record first-hand what life is like for Burmese both inside and outside of their country.  The images in this exhibit are products of Linsenmayer’s 2006 journey and portray the perspective of life under one of the world’s most repressive military regimes.
