Time Came Around
​Cindy Zimmerman, Family, and Friends

August 27 to October 27, 2013


Community artist Cindy Zimmerman creates an installation without a clear endpoint, a series of riffs on time, play, attachment, and change – featuring altered patio furniture, paintings, assemblages, and zines. The show takes its title from Kurt Weill’s September Song, in which someone old tries to reach a bargain with someone young. Zimmerman’s installation brings together her work – new, old, and re-purposed – with works by her grandchildren and their dads when they were young.

Show Credits:
Zimmermans: Cindy, Dan, Lucy, Michael, Miles
Grrrlzines-a-go-go: Margarat Nee and Kim Schwenk
Students from San Diego Mesa and MiraCosta College classes, names TBA
Jorge Gonzales and younger Golden Hill Recreation Center muralists
Eric Martin, Pam Harris, and Mario Lara, animation concepts
Thom Renbarger, photography

EVENTS AND WORKSHOP DATES:
ZINE WORKSHOP ~ September 6th  12pm - 3pm
San Diego Mesa College Book Arts Class joins Grrrlzines-a-go-go for a hands-on experience focusing on Time Travel. What was your earliest drawing? Did you have imaginary friends? What can you learn from your younger self? Facts and science fiction collide in the final collaborative product, and the public is invited to participate.
Time Came Round
WIRE AND CLOTH SCULPTURE WORKSHOP ~ September 12th  6pm - 8pm
San Diego Mesa College 3D Design Class makes & installs Transitional Objects/Imaginary Friends as part of the exhibition. Childhood attachment theorist D.W. Winnicott explained that transitional objects like teddy bears and lovie blankets help infants learn the boundaries between Me and Not-Me. Public is invited to participate.

Johnny High-Hat
OPENING RECEPTION AND PERFORMANCE ~ September 14th  6pm - 9pm
Musical performances by Johnny High-Hat (a.k.a. John Highkin) co-founder with Zimmerman of Fern Street Circus. Highkin and guests will perform a set of country swing and old standards about hunger, longing, sadness, change and affirmation. First performance will start at 6pm, others will be intermittent and spontaneous.

ARTIST TALK ~ October 12th  7pm
Time Travel and Simultaneity - a discussion with slides and video clips charting the reveries of a grandma artist dozing in a papasan chair, surrounded by artifacts of family and pop culture. References will include researcher Harry Harlow’s rhesus monkeys, Agnes Moorehead’s Twilight Zone alien, and Lisa Marie’s killer beehive in Mars Attacks. Zimmerman raises questions that have come up while babysitting the grandchildren: How do we know how to make an image? Why are we compelled to do it? What can we learn from a younger self? What is good about getting old? What can we learn from a universe unfolding?
