"Usable Pasts: 2009-10 Artists-in-Residence" Exhibition
This event has ended.
At Studio Museum Harlem
Media: Painting, Installation, Video installation
In this year’s installment of the much anticipated "Artist-in-Residence" exhibition, Mequitta Ahuja (b. 1976), Lauren D. Kelley (b. 1975) and Valerie Piraino (b. 1981) display diverse projects in a range of media, all visually addressing the construction of history and memory. Ahuja makes lush paintings in which mythological warriors and demigods move between landscape, self-portraiture and abstraction; Kelley crafts stop-motion animations and sculptural installations telling stories of material and emotional excess; Piraino repurposes family artifacts to create installations drawing attention to the frames that shape experience and memory.
