NY / Field Studies
Curated by Naomi Reis and Andrew Prayzner
Tiger Strikes Asteroid New York
July 8 – August 7, 2016
Opening Reception: Friday, July 8, 6 – 9pm
TSA is pleased to present Field Studies, a group exhibition featuring the work of Terry Adkins, Emilie Clark, Zachary Fabri, Rachel Frank, Matthew Jensen, Julia Oldham and Lina Puerta. The work in this exhibition stems from the spirit of the explorer, the investigator and seeker – taking the studio outside to activate space, and allowing curiosity and chance to shape outcome. In these Field Studies, rather than using the scientific method of applying systematic experiments to test a predetermined thesis, the artists use rigorous methods to offer glimpses of alternate realities and otherwise invisible realms of knowledge.
