This is the visual art on the wall: Stellar Attraction. (on view at the Art Academy of Cincinnati's Pearlman Gallery from January 16-February 13, 2009) Copious amounts of the blank gallery walls have been left as breathing room around an impressive number of diminutive objects hung high above one's head and low enough to nearly touch the baseboards of the space. How one progresses through the space is less linear than exhibitions where work is hung consistently at a natural viewing height or displayed on pedestals. In their arrangement and in the treatment of the surfaces of the different works, Seeman interplays the order of the grid against the unpredictable compositions of constellations.
