Above the Fold presents the work of renowned artists from four continents. The exhibit is an engaging, thought-provoking, and interdisciplinary look at the modern advances of origami through contemporary artwork that demonstrates the extraordinary artistic achievements being made in the world of contemporary origami.  SEE PHOTOS OF THE EXHIBITION

These artists have been pushing the boundaries of origami—the Japanese art of paper folding— to elevate what was once considered a children’s craft into a sophisticated global art form. In their hands, this art form has been evolving in remarkable new directions, including sculpture, large-scale installations, and conceptual works that express contemporary social, political, and aesthetic ideas.

Above the Fold participating artists include Erik Demaine and Martin Demaine (Canada/USA), Vincent Floderer (France), Miri Golan (Israel), Paul Jackson (UK/Israel), Dr. Robert J. Lang (USA), Yuko Nishimura (Japan), Richard Sweeney (UK), and Jiangmei Wu (China/USA).

Gallery Hours are 10 am - 5 pm Tue-Sun except: closed Thursday, November 22.  Gallery closes at 1:00pm on Sunday, September 16.
