Declaring Independence Opens
at PC's Eric Fischl Gallery

Declaring Independence, an exhibition project organized by the Phoenix Institute of Contemporary Art (phICA), will open Monday, October 3, 2011 at Phoenix College's Eric Fischl Gallery. Curated by Ted G. Decker, the exhibition highlights the phenomenon of many exceptional artists who do not have commercial art gallery representation.

The exhibition, which will run October 3-27, is the result of a community collaboration between the phICA and the Eric Fischl Gallery. It spotlights artistic productions from 23 artists, mostly from Phoenix but also from cities where artists face a dearth of commercial gallery representation, including Boston, Miami, New York, and Rio de Janeiro.

An opening reception will take place on Monday, October 3rd from 5:30-7:30 p.m. in the gallery. The reception and the exhibition are free and open to the public.
