Erinn Springer returned to rural Wisconsin after the loss of a close family member, hoping to reconnect with her memories of home. Created with her family and strangers, the resulting series depicts the contrasts of the modern midwest where everyday occurrences get caught between past and present. Her portrayals of isolation and connection explore interior and exterior landscapes in a region that is mysterious yet familiar. A portrait of agrarian life, Dormant Season is a tender document of the intergenerational bonds of rural America: a mental space and physical place at the heart of an old dream and at the edge of a transformation.
The exhibition at Stout includes several works from this series previously exhibited at The Museum of Wisconsin Art (June-Sept 2025). To find more about Erinn Springer’s photography practice: https://erinnspringer.com/
Catalogtree is a multidisciplinary design studio based in Arnhem (NL). It was founded in 2001 by Daniel Gross and Joris Maltha who met at Werkplaats Typografie. The studio works continuously on commissioned and self initiated projects. Highly interested in self-organising systems they believe in 'Form Equals Behaviour'. Experimental tool-making, programming, typography and the visualization of quantitative data are part of their daily routine.
Recent endeavours include recycling pink plastic toys to create a way-finding system, turning a pocket calculator into a metal detector and designing a GIS route to the best spot for dropping a seventeen ton marble rock into the Mediterranean. Daniel Gross and Joris Maltha teach at ArtEZ Institute of the Arts in Arnhem (NL) and have taught and lectured widely. The work of Catalogtree is in the collection of the Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Museum of Design (NYC, USA), The Archive of Het Nieuwe Instituut (Rotterdam, NL) and the Museum of Design Zurich (Zurich, CH).
