A BONSAI BIENNIAL by the MN Museum of American Art in St. Paul. runs through August 3rd. Faced with so many issues, curator Christina Chang produced a commendable installation that brings out the best in the art. It was chosen by Chang and jurors Brian Frink and Meredith Lynn from 377 applications. While there are no obvious themes tying it all together, there are strains of environmentalism and a concern for nature and its fragility. The artists are skillful and innovative in their manipulation of materials. Together they cover the emotional, intellectual and conceptual waterfront — from high seriousness to humor, from abstraction to figurative dioramas, from painting to photography to ceramics to traditional beadwork.
