ISGM Exhibitions: madamimadam: Elaine Reichek

	a virtual exhibition by Elaine Reichek Conceptual artist Elaine Reichek came to the Museum as an Artist-in-Residence in February 2001. In 2003, the Museum's Centennial year, Reichek returned with an exhibition of her work. Unlike any previous show at the Museum, madam i'm adam is a virtual exhibition. Working when the galleries were closed to the public, Reichek briefly installed her samplers among the works in the Gardner's permanent collection. madam i'm adam comprises a group of images of this temporary installation that can only be seen through Reichek's digital project. In this virtual exhibition of her work amid Mrs. Gardner's collection, the artist subtly overcomes restrictions in Mrs. Gardner's will, which stipulates that her installation can never be altered.
