Social Change Exhibit opening in NYC

Close Encounters, Acts of Social Imagination will open June 25th - August 28th. The reception will take place Thursday, June 25th, 6-8pm, Nathan Cummings Foundation, 475 10th Ave.

Among the artists in attendance will be the Floating Lab.

"Floating Lab Collective” is a group of metropolitan DC-based artists working collectively on performances, media art and research. The main idea is to expand the space of art into public space and to expand the discourse about contemporary art. The participating artists are a dynamic and flexible group that expands and contracts in size depending on the piece to be executed.

June 25th will mark the opening of Provisions’ second Close Encounters exhibit, this time in NYC at the Nathan Cummings Foundation. Featuring 14 artists with distinct acts of social imagination, the premiere performance of Floating Lab Collective’s Screamer and musical guests the Tom Gardner Trio. Opening night is sure to be a celebration.

To RSVP for this event, go to the Provisions Library website.  You can also read my interview with Sue Wrbican of the Floating Lab collective to learn about her exciting projects.
