Carolina National Champion Equestrian team has proven it has brought
the winning spirit home again this spring season. The University of
South Carolina National Champion Equestrian team earned its 13th consecutive
win recently.

Onewood Farm facility features include a covered arena, three barns
with the capacity for 22 horses, two outdoor all-weather footing arenas,
a sprinkler system for all arenas, locker room and three tack rooms.
In
1998, Equestrian was classified as an NCAA sport. Many people within
the horse industry have united together to help advance the sport to
full NCAA championship status. In order to attain this goal and hold
a NCAA Equestrian Championship, there must be 40 Division I/II schools
that sponsor Equestrian as a varsity level program. Currently 23 colleges
and universities offer Equestrian as a Varsity sport and more continue
to add the program each year.
Jumps

the fastest growing emerging sports in colleges and universities throughout
the United States.

Jumps West
was selected among all U.S. jump suppliers to provide on a very limited
timetable unique decorative themed equestrian products to the Barrett
family in Peyton, Colorado.
(excerpted
from equipment supplier, nationsrent.com): Billy Jack Barrett, manager
of the Air Force Academy Equestrian Center, and his wife Anne are known
for opening their hearts and home to difficult horses from across the
country. The success they have experienced in their equestrian business
has labeled them the true "Horse Whisperers" of our time.
At the same time, the couple has applied their talent and compassion
to troubled children, some of whom are deemed unmanageable and unadoptable
by the Colorado Department of Human Services (DHS). The Barrett's only
challenge to adopting more of these children is that their small, 101-year
old farmhouse could not fit any more by law. Anne Barrett took a chance
and sent in a letter to Extreme Makeover: Home Edition asking for a
new home and a possible new life for future children in need!

“Something is Possible”
February 10 – March 17, 2007
Jumps
West provided Art quality Gallery exhibition materials for this special
event. We supplied European designs in coordination with the Gallery
and the artist, who flew in from Europe for the Opening.
Opening Reception February 10, 5 – 7pm
Shoshana
Wayne Gallery is pleased to present its first exhibition of work by
mounir fatmi. mounir fatmi constructs visual spaces and linguistic games
that aim to free the viewer from their preconceptions of politics and
religion, and allow them to contemplate these and other subjects in
new ways. His videos, installations, drawings, paintings and sculptures
bring to light our doubts, fears and desires. They directly address
the current events of our world, and serve to both explicate the origins
and symptoms of global issues, as well as speak to those whose lives
are affected by specific events.
The exhibition
“Something is Possible”, gathers together a series of artworks
in diverse media that ask the viewer to search for hope within often
terrifying and difficult subjects. His
sculptural installations using massive amounts of antenna cable inherently
reference the transmission of information and the worldwide communications
network. His severing and rejoining of the cables hints at the underlying
media censorship, where gaps in information become gaps in public knowledge
and understanding. In a similar manner, his sculptures formed out of
VHS cassettes reference the bombardment of media through incessant duplication
and repetition. In the most overtly political work of the exhibition,
flags of each of the G8 countries, which act as visually symbolic icons
of the enormous power held by these nations, are relegated to mere adornments
atop push-brooms; both a tool of the common worker and a reminder of
those affected by the decisions of the group.
mounir will also be exhibiting a new version of his installations using
equestrian jumping bars; “obstacles”, both figurative and
literal, which force the breakdown of pre-existent physical and psychological
barriers. The obstacles operate on many levels, at once speaking to
the distances between the Middle East and the West while simultaneously
touching on the similarities in origins of traditions shared by these
seemingly disparate nations and peoples. The traditional dichotomies
of good and bad, beautiful and ugly, are torn apart, disallowing us
to cast such narrow dispersions on complex topics. As a result, the
interpretive possibilities offered to the viewer are vastly multiplied.
mounir fatmi’s work has been exhibited in the Migros Museum für
Gegenwarskunst, Zürich, Switzerland, the Museum Kunst Palast, Düsseldorf,
Germany, Centre Georges Pompidou, Paris, France, and the Mori Art Museum
in Tokyo Japan. He also recently participated in the Gwangju Biennial,
Korea, and the Seville Biennial, Spain. In 2006 he was awarded the Grand
Prize at the 7th Dakar Biennial, and his work will be included in the
2007 Luanda Triennial in Angola.
mounir fatmi was born in Tangiers, Morocco, and lives and works between
Paris, France and Tangiers.
