Opening Reception | Antone Konst: In a Sea of Nothing
An exhibition of new paintings depicting flowers, animals, and figures. It comprises a group of figurative paintings depicting subjects from the natural world. These subjects are universally familiar - flowers, animals and figures; however, they are not specific. The flowers are not of a specific strain, the animals are not of a particular breed. The human figures are recognizable as musicians or painters; yet they are not specific individuals. They express just enough of themselves to convey what they are. This ambiguity and anonymity allow for a direct and deep expression of emotion that is portrayed in paint through soft, strong, smooth, and rough brushstrokes.

Opening Reception | Math Bass: Roses Are Red
Math Bass’s dynamic practice includes sculpture, painting and architectural interventions, often setting the stage for performance (potential or executed), and exploring the movement of bodies through space. Central to their work is the concept of fluidity in meaning, and how repetition, context, and scale inherently contribute layers of complexity in representation and content. Over the past decade, Bass has developed a lexicon of symbols—letters, bodily forms, architectural fragments, animals, bones, flowers—arranged in a variety of compositions, each symbol an empty space of meaning, informed only by the context in which it finds itself. The artist clones and manipulates these symbols, activating questions of identity and interpretation: are these two symbols identical? Does shifting scale, repetition, and context affect meaning? Can you truly trust your interpretations? These open-ended questions are linked to the artist’s own queerness and transness, as their practice insists upon a more philosophical take on the nuances of identity.

Filled with intricate details, these pieces are elaborately executed and contain a variety of elements such as plastics, artificial crystals, metals, fabrics, and an assortment of found objects. These “little worlds and dreams,” in Ye Funa’s own words, highlight her aspiration to explain what roles “folk” should play under the framework of contemporary art.

Book Discussion | Fatma Bucak: While the Dust Quickly Falls
This book launch will feature a conversation between artist Fatma Bucak, curator Kari Conte, and scholar Heather Davis. They will discuss state violence and the climate catastrophe, through the lens of Bucak’s 2023 Kunsthaus Dresden exhibition, While the Dust Quickly Falls. Bucak’s video They burned it all (2022) will also have its New York premiere at the event. Fatma Bucak: While the Dust Quickly Falls is published on the occasion of Fatma Bucak’s titular exhibition at Kunsthaus Dresden. The book, edited by Kari Conte, considers the relationships between political violence, environmental destruction, and climate change. Moving across disparate geographies in the Mediterranean region connected by the catastrophic impact of conflict and war, it dwells on the loss of biodiversity, humanity’s interdependence on the natural world, and healing. In works ranging from a living environment to performance, video, sculpture, and sound works, the artist questions how humanity is ethically implicated and entangled in ecological transformation and destruction.

In her first solo program, Anna Kochinterweaves innovative commissioned compositions by composers from Austria and the US with her own improvisations into an unheard-of whole, seeking to cross boundaries and find common ground.

Dance Performance | Crack Nerve Boogie Swerve: Dance and Music Showcasing the Human Body -- Outdoors
Alexis Blake merges visual arts, performance, and dance to explore the body as an archive of embodied knowledge. Each of Blake's compositions are based on extensive research into specific histories—such as the politics of emotions, archetypal depictions of women in western art history from the Renaissance to the start of Modernism, or the banning of lamentations in Ancient Greece—which she uses to build an ever-expanding lexicon of gestures, sounds, and even scents. In all her works, the artist directly connects with the representation and subjectification of women’s and queer bodies while activating them as sites and agents for socio-political change. Blake presents a new iteration of her work Crack Nerve Boogie Swerve, a work that takes up glass and breaking as metaphors for the fragility and strength of the individual and collective body. Both an installation and a performance, the work starts with sheets of glass nestled in moveable steel bases. The performers, who are a percussionist, two sound artists and four dancers coming from different dance genres such as breakdance, hip hop, contemporary, ballet, West African, and tap, activate the glass to explore transparency, resistance, resonance and breaking—breaking free from constraints and liberating oneself from the confinement of oppression.
