Join us for a private tour of A landscape longed for: the garden as disturbance, with curators Laura Novoa and Season One commissioned artist Adler Guerrier.
A landscape longed for: the garden as disturbance is an exhibition exploring the motif of the garden as used by artists in its relation to the cultivation and expression of beauty and knowledge. The works in the exhibition function around images and objects connected to and derived from the study of plants, prompting a reimagining and reinterpretation of the garden as a site for the lyrical arrangement of forms. As the title suggests, within the implementation of order, there exist tendencies towards disruption and anticipation that challenge and inform our sense of world building. In the way that the “world cannot be left out of the garden,” the exhibition considers how the garden operates on the imaginary, attending to our needs and emotions, stimulating the senses, staging instances of joy, and insisting on living well as liberation.
Participating artists include Andrea Bowers, Sandi Haber Fifield, David Hartt, Jim Hodges, Cristina Lei Rodriguez, Ebony Patterson, Ema Ri, and Onajide Shabaka.
Open to all members. No RSVP required.
