 7:00-9:00 PM\nwith the show:		       \n			       \n	 \nThe ABAiR (Arts 
 Benicia Artist in Residence Program) is a unique amalgam of an interactive 
 installation process and art exhibition.  For the installation component, 
 Arts Benicia is providing three artists, Claudia Chapline, Theresa Muñoz 
 and Thomas Stanton, with an opportunity to work out installation ideas in a 
 2,000 square foot space over a period of three weeks.  It is not uncommon 
 for artists doing site-specific installation have a brief time to install, 
 resulting in inadequate opportunities to work in the actual space.  With 
 ABAiR, the artists will have time to attune themselves with the space as 
 they work through their respective processes. July 7 – 17, 
 Thursday-Sunday from 12:00-5:00 pm, artists will be present in the gallery 
 working on their installations, and the public is welcomed to visit the 
 gallery and interact with them as they work.\n\nClaudia Chapline is an 
 international artist and writer who has been creating installations and 
 performances for 35 years.  Chapline’s utilizes drawings, paintings, 
 photographs and objects created in response to subjects and places in her 
 installations. \n\nTheresa Muñoz received an MA/BA in Environmental and 
 Visual Studies from Harvard University and an MFA in Product Design from 
 Stanford University. She teaches classes on eco-art and her work is 
 produced with non-toxic, eco-friendly materials. Munoz works from the sky 
 down to the ground up, and will be utilizing large pieces of dyed silk, and 
 drift wood to create her installation.\n\nThomas Stanton has worked in 
 ceramics, painting and sound to create his art. His installation will 
 utilize ambient noise, in an attempt to produce one overall sensation, 
 through the use of multiple media rather than showcasing a singular point 
 of view, either conceptually or materially.\n\nThe artists’ installations 
 will be completed on July 21st, and the exhibition will be on view until 
 August 14th complimented by a variety of public programs. On July 23, 
 2011at 7:00 Arts Benicia will host a reception for the artists to celebrate 
 the completion of their installations.\n\n\nThe ABAiR Project has been 
 generously sponsored by Olson Realty, Inc. \n\nArts Benicia, a non-profit 
 visual arts organization, gallery and arts education center, is located at 
 991 Tyler St., #114 in Benicia’s historic Arsenal district. The gallery 
 is open from 12 to 5 Thursday through Sunday.  For more information
