Curatorial Community

End of Curatorial Community.... Start of Make Space

2011-01-22T13:56:00.001-08:00

To whomever stumbles upon this site:

Curatorial Community was a genuine effort to organize art exhibits in a collaborative manner. It worked temporarily and was successful for that short amount of time. Due to several factors including my own schedule, Curatorial Community has been inactive for a long time.

FORTUNATELY, I have created an art blog, which aims to give exposure to great emerging artist and eventually will include writings from planned studio visits.

Please check out the site: http://make-space.net

Best,

Haven't posted in awhile. Currently Michelle and I are trying to reorganize the SAIC chapter of Curatorial Community. Hopefully we will get the right start in January. Aside from organizing more shows, I plan to showcase apartment spaces, alternative spaces and galleries with new work. If anyone is interested in writing reviews or just small blurbs on any of these, please email me.

Also, December 18th is the opening of a group show I am participating in at Barbara & Barbara Gallery (http://barbaraandbarbaraloveyou.com/home.html) More details to come!

CALLS FOR ENTRY

DEADLINE: JULY 15th, 2009

EXHIBITION DATES: Mid-August

Andre Lenox, Evan Lenox and Lynnette Miranda are a group of students who are trying to organize an exhibition space. Since we do not have our ideal space, we are taking advantage of our apartment by curating a show to commence our curatorial efforts.

Artists needed for a curated show about inhabiting and/or invading the domestic space. Works should form a relationship with the apartment setting. This is a site-specific show where artists from all mediums are welcome to take over any space in the home. Looking for already existing work and proposal for new pieces. Some examples include the freezer, cabinets, ceilings, rooms, closets, televisions, walls, and so forth.

Please visit refer to blog posts to access floor plans, images and a list of available spaces.

Please send a link of 10-20 images or 10 min of video/sound work, an artist statement and a short biography to curatorialcommunity@gmail.com

Planning for Fall 2009

2009-04-17T11:30:00.000-07:00

Next Fall I would like for our group to get started on shows, events and performances (etc).

In the summer I will be posting several ideas and sugesstions. I hope for this blog to be like online "meetings". Nothing will be set in stone....but if we want to plan a visit to a space, organize a guest speaker, scouting out spaces we can show in.... I can start making phone calls and get the ball rollin'.

Planned Activities!

Organize Guest Speakers

Trips to Alt Spaces

Organize different types of shows and exhibitions per semester.

Fundraising/ Sponsors for Shows

Plan for other SAIC students to write about the shows

***leave some suggestions!

p.s. everything proposed is always up for discussion
