Beyond|In Western New York 2010: ALTERNATING CURRENTS — Venues and artists announced
This biennial, multi-venue exhibition will present the work of outstanding artists from Western New York and Southern Ontario, responding to the regionally relevant theme Alternating Currents and its undercurrent of utopian power, both literal and metaphorical; reclamation or use of natural assets; visions of the future and the past; technological progress or intrusion; and the diverse demographic and social constructs of this region.

Josh Greene
Character Descriptions
A new project by a San Francisco-based artist who, over the last several years, has realized his work in many distinct iterations. Recent projects include Service-Works: a small foundation he created that awards grants—based upon his income as a waiter in fine-dining restaurant—to other artists, starting an unlicensed therapy practice, attempting to sell a museum curator and his museum office, a collaboration with his wife which involved hiring Danish actors to play the two of them in a video, and creating a small book based on his family members writing about their least favorite projects he has done.

Heather Layton
Preparing To Lose
In a culture addicted to win/win, "we're No. 1" scenarios, Heather Layton's Preparing To Lose drawings are imagined as counter-narratives to the cultural norm. Her ambiguous and unidentified characters are fragile, but not fear-ridden. They are part of a team that is not going to win, but persist in trying.

Internship Program
On-going Call for Applications
While Hallwalls Contemporary Arts Center appreciates the importance of real-life experiences for students, we also deeply value the skills and imagination that interns and volunteers bring to our organization.

From assisting with installations in our gallery, to selling tickets at concerts, to digitizing our history in the archives, it is the goal of our internship program to engage participants in the rich cultural history of Hallwalls and Buffalo. Internships can be taken for academic credit, service learning, or simply for experience. Internships are available in the Fall, Spring and Summer, and if you plan to take an internship for credit, we recommend that you contact us the semester prior. In addition, if you take the internship for credit you should expect to be available during our office hours, Tuesday-Friday 11-6, as well as for our evening and weekend programs.
