Please join us as our visual artists-in-residence open their studios at Building 110: LMCC’s Arts Center for a final time before completing their residencies. Seventeen individual artists and three collaborative groups have been working in LMCC’s new studios on Governors Island since March, developing new projects in a wide range of media. Come see the exciting new work they have created.
Resident artists include: Jae Hi Ahn, Rachel Bacon, Ouida Biddle, Jessica Bruah, David Colosi, Jessica Feldman, Jenn Figg, The Friendly Falcons and Their Friend the Snake, Moo Kwon Han, GH Hovagimyan, The Shining Mantis, Sungmi Lee, Sunghee Pae, Birgit Rathsmann, Larry Shea, Hidemi Takagi, Work Progress Collective, Chin Chih Yang, and Maeung Gyun You.
More information about our current residents, including biographies and examples of their work, is available here.
In the Gallery: Searching For Something Previously Unknown or Forgotten on Governors Island
An exhibition by Matthew Jensen
Matthew Jensen’s project Searching For Something Previously Unknown or Forgotten on Governors Island combines landscape photography, collections of artifacts found lying in plain sight, video, and installation to reconnect the Island back to New York City. His images will index overgrown lots and put inaccessible areas back into public view. The work will be shown along with his ongoing project Nowhere In Manhattan, which uses the classical idea of wonderment when exploring the last parcels of “nowhere” throughout the borough.
We'll host an opening reception on Saturday, July 24 from 3–5PM.
Searching For Something… will be on view through August 29.
