展覧会について

This group exhibition presents exhilarating juxtapositions of artworks and processes as they collide with and are layered on top of one another. Inspired by Robert Rauschenberg’s “combines” and his belief that the world can be viewed as a “gigantic painting from which to crop,” guest curator and abstract painter Jackie Saccoccio (RISD BFA ’85) invited 17 artists to contribute to the project, with several artists working directly on the gallery walls. Embracing flexibility and open-endedness, the result is a vibrant environment that echoes the cultural loss and chaos created by the insertion of the new. The participating artists are Caroline Achaintre, Nicole Cherubini (RISD BFA ’93), Carl D’Alvia (RISD BFA ’87), Lucky DeBellevue, Franklin Evans, Jeffrey Gibson, Susan Jennings (with Slink Moss), Michel Majerus, Marilyn Minter, Joyce Pensato, Erica Royer (RISD BFA ’07), Jackie Saccoccio, Laura Stein, Nader Tehrani (RISD BArch ’86), Doug Wada, Christopher Wool and Kevin Zucker (RISD BFA ’00).
