String Monuments
Annette Lawrence’s string installations are a response to architecture as
monumental text. The string presents a visual lightness, balanced by the
substantial physicality and scale of the work. References to lattice, woven
vessels, suspension bridges, and musical instruments often emerge. The
work, String Monuments, in the Changing Gallery is part of an ongoing body
of work that originated in 1994 at Project Row Houses in Houston, Texas.
Other String Installations have been installed in Johannesburg, South Africa;
Ann Arbor, Michigan; New York, New York; and Dallas, Texas.

Coin Toss
Coin Toss, was designed in response to the significant architectural statement that is the new Dallas Cowboy’s Stadium and reflects or signals the beginning of the experience of being in one of the most arresting buildings in the world.
The installation is located in the South East VIP Lobby, which is approached through glass doors. The space is 45 feet wide, 15 feet deep, and 33 feet tall. The shape of Coin Toss alludes to the promising moment at the start of a game. It references a circle flipping in space across the room. Coin Toss is overhead starting at 12 feet from the floor. The work is a circle with a diameter of 14 feet centered on the 15-foot wall. Half of the circle is on the left and the other half is on the right. The steel cablewire crosses from the top of one side to the bottom of the other creating a convex shape on one side and a concave shape on the other. There are forty-one points on each wall.
As visitors pass beneath Coin Toss the work transforms itself from an interior to an exterior transparent conical form. One side completes the other.

Free Paper
Free Paper, Annette Lawrence’s timely solo exhibition opens October 24 at Dunn and Brown Contemporary, with a body of work that addresses issues of excess and consumerism. While journals and personal calendars have provided inspiration in previous series, daily junk mail provides the source material for this exhibition. Lawrence explores her concerns about the extreme amount of paper used in the effort to advertise products and services through direct mail. The paper collected over 395 days (thirteen months) weighs a total of 265 pounds. Free Paper is both a commentary on the disposability of consumer culture and an attempt to introduce order and meaning.

Scottish Triangle Arts Trust 3 Islands Workshop June 2 - 16, 2007
The Tanera Mor International Artist Workshop was a residency that allowed it's participants to transcend the framework of the group exhibition and create lasting creative links. As well as being based on Tanera Mor, the participants also interacted with the public through open days, community visits to the mainland (Achiltibuie and Ullapool), and a Ceilidh that gave both the artists and the community the chance to come together.

Collection in Context: Gesture
Complementing the larger museum exhibition Energy/Experimentation: Black Artists and Abstraction, 1964-80, this installation of the series presents works drawn from the collection and local loans which suggest traces of the brush or body, the gesture. Though we often think of gesture as physical movement in space, here we see it as ephemeral movement across space – the space of the canvas, the paper, the wall, the photographic stage. With selections ranging from works on paper by Fred Wilson and Beauford Delaney, to mixed media hanging sculpture by Kori Newkirk to photographs by Robin Rhode both the diversity of our collection and the pertinence of this theme are highlighted.

Matter of Time
Each work included in this exhibition is not only about process and material but also about the passage of time wherein the work has been created. The record of this creation is laid bare. Each work brings the viewer into the world the artist has created. Time is slowed, quickened, disrupted, cyclical and infinite.
Annette Lawrence will install a new site-specific installation using her signature pale cotton string to create a rhythmic pattern of intersecting lines which evoke a visual music.
