BEY[ON]D PAPER OFFERS PAPER WITH A TWIST 

"Bey[on]d Paper", an exhibition by New World School of the Arts College visual artists barrows the traditional concept of a paper exhibition and gives a an intriguing twist. The idea for the show comes from a traditional category for exhibitions: works on paper - for which drawings, prints and artist's books are often grouped together. "Bey(on)d Paper" offers a variation on that idea by incorporating non-traditional materials into the artistic conceptual and execution process. Among the works to be presented is a book made of cement and window screening, and works made in experimental drawing classes that include video and three-dimensional elements. This in addition to traditionally (and beautifully) executed monotypes, intaglio and silkscreen prints.

Opening Reception: April 14; 6:00 PM

New World Gallery

25 NE 2 Street, downtown Miami

Exhibition is free and open to the public.

Will remain open through May 20, 2011
