Tomek Lamprecht "I have long wondered when a work is finished. At what point does a bunch of stuff - or a work in progress become art? Artists struggle with this question all the time. Some don't go far enough, some don't know when to stop," observes Roberts. "This exhibition features a fascinating array of works by artists asserting that their work could not be completed with one panel alone." Come take a look and see whether you agree.  Tom Gehrig An artists' reception will be held on Thursday, June 7th, from 5pm to midnight. A panel discussion that evening moderated by Roberts will begin at 9pm with SAM curator of modern & contemporary art, Michael Darling, artist Tomek Lamprecht and The Stranger art critic, Jen Graves. Topic: what is Darling's vision for SAM and why will Seattle be relevant on the international art scene?  Kathleen Rabel CoCA is located at 6413 Seaview Ave. NW inside the Shilshole Bay Beach Club on Ballard's waterfront (three doors north of Ray's). Gallery hours are 9am - 5pm weekdays.
