Between Spaces

On view October 25, 2009 - April 5, 2010

For the second time in P.S.1 history, the junior curatorial staff will produce and organize a large-scale group exhibition. Between Spaces will include film, installation, photography, and sculpture that address themes of nostalgia, a preoccupation with materiality, and the creation of illusionistic and psychological shifts in space. Playing the role of alchemist, each artist in Between Spaces will recast familiar materials and objects such as wood, paint, mirrors, moving blankets, Plexi-glass, Venetian blinds, and metal grating to make the ordinary strange.

Artists: David Altmejd, Martin Soto Climent, Alex Da Corte, Robert de Saint Phalle, Cheryl Donegan, Zak Kitnick, Sam Moyer, Heather Rowe, Melanie Schiff, Marc Swanson, and Penelope Umbrico

Organized by Tim Goossens and Kate McNamara, P.S.1 Curatorial Assistants.
