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).
