Window (Re/production | Re/presentation) is extremely pleased to announce a multi-city project that launched at satellite locations throughout the U.S. in January of 2016. Window | National will mount three, public art exhibitions throughout 2016 organized to be on view simultaneously at each location. Claudia Weber (Brooklyn, NY) will serve as the inaugural artist, with an installation date of January 8, 2016. In the spirit of community and collaboration, outside curators have been invited to organize the subsequent exhibitions. Kyle Weise and Simone Hine (Screen Space Gallery, Melbourne, VIC, Australia) will curate the second slot, scheduled to open in May of 2016, including the work of Joe Hamilton (Melbourne, VIC, Australia). Artist Joe Yorty (San Diego, CA) will close out the program with a work that will be installed in September of 2016. This final work will be curated by Amy Galpin (The Cornell Fine Arts Museum at Rollins College) and Alexander Jarman (The Walters Art Museum).

BACKGROUND INFORMATION

In 2013, the public art project Window (Re/production | Re/presentation) was launched in Asheville, North Carolina. We have since exhibited 19 artworks by emerging and established national and international artists in a downtown storefront window as well as one, off-site project developed in conjunction with The B.A.D.'s (Broadway Arts District) first Block Party. The project's mission is to provide the passing public an opportunity to engage with artworks that address timely and pertinent issues around re-production and re-presentation in contemporary art. The original, Asheville location of Window (Re/production | Re/presentation) is very generously sponsored and hosted by Henco Reprographics. The Window | National project was made possible by support from a Rollins College research grant (The Elizabeth Morse Genius Foundation McKean Grant), awarded to Window founder, Dawn Roe in 2015.
