Three exhibits at CSAW

Ready for a triple play of art to kick off the weekend? Check out the final shows of the spring season at Commerce Street Artists Warehouse tomorrow, where you can meet D.C.'s David Waddell, curator of CSAW's Play! exhibition. According to CSAW: "Play! exhibits the serious side of exploration, play and obsession through transforming everyday materials, personifying household objects and redefining space formally and psychologically." Nine artists are participating, including Meredith Cunningham and Katherine Veneman of Houston.

Also Friday, you'll have the chance to check out The Amazing Hancock Brothers' "jagor the black egg" in CSAW's Performance Space. The Hancocks are from Waco via Dallas, having survived their struggles with "ruthless death metal meth-mouthed rednecks that sucked dry their souls and time thru the pores of their brown skin." Yep, we can relate.

In CSAW's Project Residency is Jo Q.Nelson's Dream Houses of the Displaced, a series of architectural models of dream homes of hurricane evacuees. The models are based on interviews Nelson did with people who lost their homes last year — and it's a pretty timely thing now, in the first weeks of the '06 hurricane season.

Play!, jagor the black egg, Dream Houses of the Displaced
