Here Kitty, Kitty
January 14 – February 26, 2000
Organized by Teresa Bramlette

The beginning of widespread pet ownership coincided with a philosophical conceit to tame the natural world – to shape and control behavior. Today, pets figure prominently in our complex lives, often filling the role of a child, a friend or a mate. A great deal of our time, energy and money is now devoted to meeting the needs (physical and otherwise) of our pets. Here Kitty, Kitty is an exhibition that looks lovingly at he contemporary phenomenon of pet obsession. The show is intended to be playful and accessible, but not without bite. Here Kitty, Kitty features Janet Biggs (New York), Patricia Cronin (New York), Nicole Eisenman (New York), Vincent Fecteau (California), Katharina Fritsch (Germany), A.B. Frost (Collection of the Wren’s Nest, Atlanta), Pam Longobardi (Atlanta), Joe Peragine (Atlanta), Carolee Schneemann (New York), Katja Seltmann (Athens, GA), Sons of Caviar, V. Elizabeth Turk (Atlanta) and William Wegman (New York).
