SI Interns curate the TBD exhibition

TO BE DETERMINED is an exhibition curated by the Studios Inc interns who have direct access to the Studios Inc collection, as well as past and present residents of the program. The title of the exhibition allows the interns freedom to develop and execute their curatorial concept and vision; it is suggestive of the drive of the students who are committed to developing their professional practice and honing their skillset.

Interns are responsible for the curatorial concept and statement, curation of the studios.gallery space, installation, and promotion.

Studios Inc announces its TO BE DETERMINED 2021 exhibition. The group exhibition is curated by Studios Inc Interns Sydney Smith (KCAI) and Christian Bañez (MWSU).  This exhibition allows interns to fully curate an exhibition from conceptualization to execution.  

The show will be held in the studios.gallery space.  Smith and Bañez have chosen to feature resident artists past and present: Barry Anderson, Jill Downen, Andrea Flamini, Caitlin Horsmon, Misha Kligman, Kathy Liao, Marie McInerney and Miguel Rivera.  

Studios Inc will host an opening reception on Friday, April 2nd from 5-8pm.

TO BE DETERMINED will be on view thru May 28. Exhibition hours are currently Wednesday thru Friday from 10am-4pm and Saturday from 12-4pm.


Curatorial Statement

INTERSTICES

in·​ter·​stice·​s

noun

1: an intervening space, especially a very small one; 2: a gap or break in something generally continuous; 3: a short space of time between events

Interstices is an exhibition curated by Studios Inc interns Christian Bañez and Sydney Smith. With selected works from current and former Studios Inc resident artists, we seek to provide an intervening space to contemplate our relationships to time, space, and memory. 

From the eroded textures of Marie McInerny’s Diluvial Drawing to the intimate depiction of memory in Kathy Liao’s Surfacing, each piece presents a unique perspective to the passage of time. We have curated works within a muted color scheme that encourages a sense of quiet and calm.  Patrons can expect a range of work in varying media, from sculptural pieces to new media work. Our intention is to provide an opportunity for the viewer to examine our relationships to the interstitial through a meditative gallery experience.
