Dear friends & colleagues,
After two years at MIT, I will be getting my SMVisS (pronounced “smiz-viz”). That is a Master of Science in Visual Studies. Whatever that means, you are warmly invited to the opening of our exhibition “And Things of That Nature” this Friday, May 15 from 6-8pm (details below). I will also be doing a participatory performance on Friday, June 5th from 6-8pm. I hope you can join me if you’re in Boston!
Also check out the big fat Younger Than Jesus Directory from the New Museum, in which you will find yours truly amidst literally hundreds of awesome young artists.
very best,
Caitlin

http://tinyurl.com/ytjdirectory “Younger than Jesus: The Artists Directory” is the product of some of the most wide-ranging research in the field of contemporary art in years: the first ‘Younger than Jesus’ triennial at the New Museum. Working with a team of 200 ‘insiders’ (curators, writers, teachers, critics, bloggers and artists) scattered across the globe, curators Massimiliano Gioni, Lauren Cornell and Laura Hoptman have selected the 500 best international artists under the age of 33, from which they will curate the exhibition component of the triennial in spring 2009. While most generational exhibitions are retrospective, this one will be predictive, anticipating the future and revealing upcoming trends. “Younger than Jesus: The Artists Directory” will therefore be an unparalleled resource for curators, collectors, dealers and critics. By serving as a handbook to currrent artistic innovation, it will also appeal to artists, designers and anyone curious about the latest developments in visual culture. |
