The federal government shut down does not affect operations at Glen Echo Park. The Park is open, and our arts programs are continuing as usual; however, National Park Service monthly tours are on hold until further notice. Although the Park is located within a treasured National Park, the Glen Echo Park Partnership for Arts and Culture is not federally funded.

    Description

    The Popcorn Gallery presents Rending...Rendering, a group exhibition featuring 10 artists from Otis Street Arts Project. To "rend" something is to tear it in half. Yet a "rendering" can be a gift, something returned. These seem like wildly different ideas, even opposites. But can a creation exist without some kind of destruction? Are ashes required to sprout?

    In Rending... Rendering, the artists of Otis Street Arts Project explore the duality of construction and deconstruction in new work. They interpret this theme through visceral techniques—shredding, weaving, welding—and evocative materials, including pulp, plastic trash, and palm husks.
