People I Love Who Are Far Away
Our exhibition focuses on artists whose practices have been touched in some way by migration. The works embrace issues that intersect with immigration including human rights, international politics, absence, colonialism and identity– revealing the capacity of art to speak to the strength and resilience of the immigrant community. There will also be a special performance by Victoria Udondian that interrogates the nature of borders, immigration, and privilege by simulating and recontextualizing the frustrating experience of obtaining a visa at a customs office.
Curated by Christina Papanicolaou and the YPLC’s Gina Malek, the exhibition features work from artists who are DACA recipients, undocumented, and have roots in New York, Nigeria, Vietnam, Mexico, and everywhere in between. People I Love Who Are Far Away is a celebration of the eclectic, diverse and powerful immigrant community we all form together.
Among the artists whose work will be featured include:
Maria de los Angeles
Francisco Donoso
Camille Hoffman
Tenaya Izu
Gina Malek
Nicole Maloof
Ioana Manolache
Nazanin Noroozi
David Rios Ferreira
Hiba Schahbaz
Tariku Shiferaw

Buchvorstellung: Tollste Kunst von Larissa Kikol

Larissa Kikol: Tollste Kunst – kindliche Ästhetik in der zeitgenössischen Kunst
Ein noch unterschätztes Phänomen in der zeitgenössichen Kunst stellt die kindliche Ästhetik dar. Zwar bezogen sich schon Künstler der Moderne und der Art-brut-Bewegung auf kindliche Zeichensprachen – jedoch unter anderen, kulturkritischen Vorzeichen.
Larissa Kikol zeigt: Kindheit repräsentiert immer auch eine erwachsene Utopie und gilt als Statussymbol – die bildende Kunst entpuppt sich dabei als ein idealer Ort, eine optimierte und stilisierte Kindheit (teuer) in Szene zu setzen. Werkuntersuchungen u.a. von Jonathan Meese, David Shrigley oder Jeff Koons geben Aufschluss über Rezipientenbindung und Kunstmarktmechanismen. Davon ausgehend untersucht die Studie den Stellenwert des Kindlichen unter soziokulturellen Perspektiven.
