Phase 3: And Unstable Idea

THE STAND IN (OR A GLASS OF MILK)

 

We are proposing an exhibition whose arrangement is unstable, whose parts accumulate

and change over time.

 

An exhibition, like a surrealist exercise; nonlinear, non-narrative, symbolic and referential.  

 

During three months, in three configurations, we will involve artists whose work mirror

these ideas. Artists who flex material and content to stand in for something else: a still

life for a portrait, a film for a performance, a performance for a painting, a painting

for a sculpture, a sculpture for a photo. 

 

A presentation, in iterations, within which we play with the promise that

the exhibition is a medium in itself. 

 

This new series includes artists from Los Angeles, New York, Chicago, Paris, London,

and Berlin, with works by: Trisha Baga, Scott Benzel, Gabriele Beveridge, Lucas Blalock,

Nina Canell, Marieta Chirulescu, Isabelle Cornaro, Deanna Erdmann, Erik Frydenborg,

Amy Granat, Nathan Hylden, Barbara Kasten,Erik Lindman, Shana Lutker, Alex Olson,

Lili Reynaud-Dewar w/ Olivia Dunbar, Rachelle Sawatsky, Sara VanDerBeek, Erika Vogt and Rosha Yaghmai.

 

Including the writing of: Cara Benedetto, Jibade-Khalil Huffman and Joseph Mosconi.

 

Populated by happenings, performances and screenings in collaboration with:

Karen Adelman, Lindsay August Salazar, Scott Benzel, Brendan Fowler, Taisha Paggett

and Flora Wiegmann.

 

Curated by Alexandra Gaty and Lauren Mackler
