An exhibition curated by Shannon Stratton and Jeff M. Ward
September 8 - November 12, 2006
Glassell School of Art
Museum of Fine Arts, Houston

Ps & Qs will feature a group of emergent artists from throughout the United States and Canada. Using the century-long history of formalism as an ahistorical grab bag, the artists of Ps & Qs use a range of materials. Some are traditional like welded steel or oil paint-on-canvas. Others, like PVC, soap and a variety of fabrics, are less so. The artists included in Ps & Qs are: Todd Chilton, Nevin Tomlinson and Andrea Myers (Chicago), Kirsten Flanigan (Tampa), Mung Lar Lam (San Francisco), Paul Jackson (Calgary) as well as Carl Suddath and Katy Heinlein (Houston). Ps & Qs is curated by Shannon Stratton, Director of Programming at ThreeWalls Artists' Residency (Chicago), and Jeff M. Ward, current critic-in-residence at the Core Program of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston (Houston).
