Curated by Y2K group


Fisher Parrish Gallery presents 01102020 curated by Y2K group featuring works by Doris Guo, Linnea Kniaz, Kricket Lane, Cole Lu, and Rose Marcus.

Y2K group brings together these five sculptors under little pretense – instead of a theme to be applied to the artists artificially, the exhibition is organized around the artists, their work, and the curator’s memories and experiences visiting, meeting, and knowing each artist in various degrees. Each artist’s work exists in a peripheral field within the gallery space in which the artworks are experiential – interacting with both the space of the gallery and the viewer. In order to describe the show, the concept acts more like an identifier and not a singular idea holding everything together. The main idea and question is, how does the viewer interact with the artworks, with the space where the artworks are installed, and how do the artworks interact with each other? Each experience will differ based on how the exhibition is approached and based on the individual viewer’s observation and perception of what is in front of them. This is the intended way to experience the exhibition—to interact by physically being there to observe. Documentation will give a glimpse into the exhibition through images, but this will be only one perspective, which is that of the photographer. Since exhibition titles are another method used to label or define a traditional group show, the title references simply the opening date: 01102020.

01102020 is based on one’s perception of our collective reality and loosely based around the simulation argument. In its minimal display of objects and installation it asks the viewer if what we are seeing is real or simulated, how we perceive the empty space in front of our eyes, and how we should interact within this reality.
