paperJAM [that's the collaborative artistic efforts of myself and the fabulous Hannah Lamar Simmons!] are very excited to be participating in No Longer Empty's ABOUT FACE exhibition, opening May 5 on the Lower East Side, NYC. >>>No Longer Empty is a NYC based art organisation that redefines public art by transforming empty storefronts into public art exhibitions with accompanying programs.
The ABOUT FACE exhibition is part of the New Museum's Festival of Ideas for the New City - which will be on all over Manhattan May 4-8.... so i am off to New York this week to set up!
ABOUT FACE looks at alternative ways an exhibition can be created and received. Interactive and participatory works, both in the space and in the surrounding community, break down many of the often “taken-for-granted” aspects of how art is presented, how art is made and how the audience can relate to an exhibition.
Our piece is an interactive multimedia installation titled Under Construction. we invite you to come take a look - or even better still, particiapte - and help build our city!
