Nomadic art in Alfred
The Artstream Nomadic Gallery Tour passed through Alfred on April 7 and 8 at the Cohen Center Gallery during its 2010 trip around the country.
The gallery itself was a piece of art – a re-modeled 1967 Airstream Sovereign land yacht. Founders of the Artstream Nomadic Gallery transformed the vehicle in 2001 into a transportable, stylish and quaint art space.
The mission of Artstream is to get studio pottery out on the street where more people can experience the art.
Kevin Jacobs, creative director for the Cohen Center Gallery, commented on the impressive display of local pottery artists that were featured in the Artstream Gallery. Most notably, the work of alumni Alleghany Meadows, Andy Brayman and Ayumi Horie commanded the Artstream display and provided a testament to the intricate ceramics that have come to define Alfred University.
