DESCRIPTION:Mark Wolfe Contemporary Art is pleased to present an installation of new 
 work in diverse media by Bay Area artists Sarah Hirneisen and Kadie Salfi.  
 Working independently, Hirneisen and Salfi have produced distinct but 
 thematically interwoven installations for the Gallery space, each a 
 form-based meditation on the cyclonic forces of tradition, religion, and 
 violence that historically forged - and continues to shape - reality in the 
 contemporary Middle East and Mesopotamia.\n\nA Levantine reliquary houses 
 over 3,000 oil-filled glass vials.  A life-sized dromedary camel 
 silk-screened in crude oil on a plaster mosaic stands over a caravan of 100 
 miniature, lamp-lit camels hand-cast in bronze.  Sharp green glades of 
 living grass sprout from a suspended lattice of spend machine gun shell 
 casings.  Islamic devotional prayer rugs of colored glass, intricately 
 patterned - lie shattered.\n\nHirneisen's and Salfi's objects captivate yet 
 disorient.  Imaginative and beautiful, surprising yet adhering to a rigid 
 formal discipline, they tap into and animate our collective memory, our 
 collective understanding, perhaps our collective complicity over the 
 realities of this region of the globe known as the Cradle of 
 Civilization.\n\nExhibition runs until October 19, 2007.\n
