One of the new aspects of the second CAN Triennial is that during its two-month showing in venues in six Cleveland neighborhoods, curators from regional museums have been checking out the work to award CAN Triennial Exhibition Prizes.
Akron Art Museum, ARTneo, BAYarts, the Butler Institute of American Art, Canton Museum of Art, Erie (Pennsylvania) Art Museum, Mansfield Art Center, Massillon Museum and Summit Artspace have all been scoping out the work to choose artists whose work they’ll mount a full-scale show of. Meanwhile, cARTa (Cleveland Art Association), and collectors Jon Logan, and John Farina and Adam Tully of the Maria Neil Art Project are picking works from the various shows for Purchase Prizes.
The choices will be announced at an event at the Beachland Ballroom Thursday August 18. It’s free and open to the public.
