+Kris Graves Projects announces Adam Taye's Quorum. (presented by Outside.The.Time.Zone.)

Quorum, by Brooklyn artist Adam Taye draws parallels between the Council of the Twelve Apostles and the deification of the modern sports athlete. Through tradition, dedication, and the repetition of Sisyphus-like tasks, the athletes are able to transcend ordinary existence and enter a higher state of consciousness, granting them visceral harmony with space and time. The athletes are forever frozen in their various moments of rapture while trapped within a saint-like altar, reminiscent of votive milagros, Cathedral niches, and depictions of religious rapture in art history.

Founded in 2009, Outside The Time Zone is the curatorial partnership between Chris Rawson and Julian Calero. OTZ presents exhibitions, performances and special projects with emerging artists in collaboration with galleries and alternative spaces in New York and beyond.
