NYAB Event - "On the Golden Wire For Thirty-Four" Exhibition

"On the Golden Wire For Thirty-Four" Exhibition

NURTUREart

This event has ended.

Starting with the general idea of an exchange of content between artists, the initial focus of this project is put on the materiality of such content, rather than its possible meaning.

The point of departure is the limit: weight and volume of the most standard international package between the USA, UK and Germany. Each collaborator supplies one third of the materials and contributes to one Care Package*, which will travel from New York to Berlin to Glasgow to Berlin, before returning to its city of origin.

This exchange of matter focuses on the process, rather than what it manifests itself as in the end. The package is meant to supply three artists with the same materials to work with, without a pre-envisioned outcome. The collaboration examines individual methodologies leading to creating work using a model of giving and taking away.

When the package returns to New York, it will be put on display alongside artworks inspired by its content in a gallery exhibition at NURTUREart.
