Orange Element is very proud to announce the start of a new brand identity for our friends and colleagues at Maryland Art Place (MAP). Established in 1981, MAP is a not-for-profit center for contemporary art that energizes encounters between artists and the public through networking, educational leadership and outreach.
MAP averages eight amazing exhibitions annually in their downtown Baltimore gallery space, organizes traveling exhibitions, maintains a regional visual artists’ registry and offers a spectrum of educational and performance opportunities to thousands of participants throughout the year.
We are very pleased to be working with MAP’s team, towards creating an identity that will connect MAP to an even broader community.
Introducing metaMAP…
And now for the fun: Through February 10, MAP is accepting logo proposals for metaMAP,their new public art project series. Visit their web site today and submit your best ideas. If your design is selected, you’ll have the chance to see your logo positioned to announce some pretty amazing projects around town.
UPDATE: DUE TO THE WEATHER, THE SCREENING OF LEMONADE WILL BE RESCHEDULED FOR SOME TIME IN MARCH. WE WILL UPDATE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.
Orange Element is very pleased to be a sponsor for a screening of the film, Lemonade, brought to Baltimore and presented by Second Shore, the new public programming series created by Slant Six and the Contemporary Museum. Also, thank you to our co-sponsors, Novak Birch and Vitamin, for their assistance in making this event possible.
Orange Element is sponsoring this film to support the idea that everyone should find a way to live a fulfilling life, take chances that help make it so, and work hard to enjoy a sense of true satisfaction.
If you haven’t heard of the movie, you can watch the trailer below:
Following the film, a team member from Orange Element will join a panel discussion to talk about how the 2009 economic downturn affected work, ideas and the local creative community as a whole. Most importantly, we’ll talk about the future of ideas, innovation and what is exciting to us (and you).
Well… we’re just about a month into the new year and we want to ask ”how have you started off your year?”
This year at Orange Element we have kicked off 2010 with the theme of starting fresh. A fresh year, a fresh decade, a fresh attitude towards a year full of fresh new creative ideas! That “01″ date on the calendar offers a refreshing starting point — but a motived attitude is something that can be adopted any day of the year! Taking a first step in a fresh direction may give you the feeling of conquer all power in the start, but it’s the carry-through and continuation that matters. Start fresh, continue strong and finish stronger into 2011!
So now it’s up to you, here are a few freebie wallpapers to remind you to start your day fresh every time you look at your computer. Enjoy!
If you are in Baltimore tonight, be sure to attend Shag’s screening of Gary Hustwit’s Objectified. Gary, the director of Helvetica, covers the world of industrial design in this feature-length documentary.
Penguin Classics has created a series of clothbound novels, designed by Illustrator Coralie Bickford-Smith. Each book in the series is a true work of art, and is bound in an elegant colored bookcloth and stamped with a one-color foil stamp of a pattern inspired by the work within. Penguin is already on it’s second series of these books after the success of the first. Available from Anthropologie and other stores nationwide. Also, check out some more of the artist’s work on her website.
