The newly established Jail Gallery presents an interesting proposition with its late September show entitled "State Line," featuring artists Bill Kleiman and Chris Pate who use their art to question and navigate America and its global status. Kleiman creates a sculpture using red, white and blue squeeze toys to create a star of David inside an intricate Arabic geometric pattern, while Chris Pate shows collaged and altered maps on burlap, which speak more directly to the question of state lines.
