Cover Me: Curated by Mo Ringey
Cover Me is an exhibition born of a humorous post on Mo Ringey's blog, "Art & About with Mo," on the Valley Advocate website. The post, "Wednesday, April 4, 2007: Arts Coverage & Some Guy I Dated In High School," commented on artists' laments regarding the dwindling coverage of arts in the print media due to heightened coverage of shows like American Idol, and suggested a call to action: a show of artists commenting on the issue of arts coverage, and/or lack thereof.
As a result of response to the post, Holyoke-based artist Mo Ringey selected twelve artists, including sculptors, painters and new media artists, to comprise the exhibition Cover Me.
