2010 Idaho Triennial
September 4 – December 5, 2010
Organized every three years, the Idaho Triennial is a juried exhibition bringing together exemplary works of art created by a broad selection of Idaho artists. This year artists were asked to respond to the theme: sustain + expand. Literally, figuratively or conceptually, Idaho artists were encouraged to consider the various definitions of these words, and the ways in which their works bring a local and/or regional perspective to global issues, artistic philosophies and creative techniques.
As a new educational component, BAM will produce
Cell Phone Audio Guides for the exhibition, encouraging viewers to access information about the artworks on their cell phones.
Exhibiting artists will record the segments that pertain to their works, providing an added link between the artists and BAM visitors.

Stephen Knapp: Light Paintings
October 9, 2010 – April 17, 2011
Deriving inspiration from his studies of light, color, dimension, space and perception, artist Stephen Knapp will create an eighty-foot-long multi-dimensional composition of light in BAM’s Sculpture Court. The artist’s site-specific Lightpainting will embody a unique and original form of art that integrates sculptural, architectural and visual elements to transform the environment. This exhibition is the third exhibition featured in BAM’s Threads of Perception Series.
Lightpaintings are an outgrowth of Knapp’s longtime interest in various media including pho tography, ceramics and kiln-formed glass. In his work he achieves the perceptual presence of such artists as Robert Irwin and James Turrell. Recent exhibitions have been presented at Worcester Art Museum, Massachusetts, Flint Institute of the Arts and Midland Center for the Arts in Michigan. Sponsored by the Paul G. Allen Family Foundation
with Additional Support from URS

CRITICAL MESSAGES:
Contemporary Northwest Artists on the Environment
December 18, 2010 – April 10, 2011
This exhibition focuses on how a group of Northwest artists are currently responding to the heightened awareness of global issues and specific environmental concerns in the Northwest region. Through their artwork these artists are reacting to eight specific environmental issues which have been identified by top environmentalists as primary concerns: growth management, waste management–land and sea, mass production/consumption, transportation, preservation of wilderness and wetlands, biodiversity, climate change and energy.
