TSA NY Flat File 2018

Two of the watercolor collages made during my summer residency in Corris are included in TSA NY's 2018 Flat File program.

The 2018 Flat File: Year Five

December 1 – December 17

Reception: Friday December 12, 6-9 PM

Tiger Strikes Asteroid New York is pleased to present an exhibition launching our 2018 Flat File program. Chosen from an open call that attracted a diverse range of artists, the 37 selected represent an array of approaches towards flat media: drawing, collage, printmaking, and photography. In many cases the selected works are emblematic of an artist’s core practice, while for some this work represents a departure from a larger body of work. The small-scale format presented in our program presents an elastic site for play and exploration.

During this exhibition, and throughout the year visitors are welcome to browse and acquire artworks from the flat file. Individual pieces from the program will be selectively highlighted throughout the year. All works can be viewed on our website and a catalog highlighting all artists in the 2018 program is available for purchase on our website and through MagCloud.

The 2018 Flat File features works by: Paolo Arao, Carlos Beltran Arechiga, Caetlynn Booth, Ellen Burchenal, Emily Burns, Eddie Chu, Andrea Sherrill Evans, Jacquelyn Gleisner, Rhia Hurt, Raymie Iadevaia, Vanessa Irzyk, Chris Joy, Tricia Keightley, Songyi Kim, Rachel Klinghoffer, Alison Kudlow, Vanessa Larsen, Mary Laube, Amanda Lechner, Tonya Lee, Greg Lindquist, Elizabeth Livingston, Leeza Meksin, Bridget Mullen, Ryan Sarah Murphy, Erin Murray, Justin Plakas, Keisha Prioleau-Martin, Lauren Rice, Kristen Schiele, Jennifer Shepard, Niki Singleton, Sarah Slappey, Melinda Steffy, Catalina Viejo Lopez de Roda, Bettina Weiß, and James Woodfill.

Off Kilter/In Time

The Fuel And Lumber Company Presents: Off Kilter / In Time

works by April Bachtel and Mary Laube
Opening reception, July 2nd, 6-9pm
COOP Gallery, 507 Hagan Street Nashville, TN 37203
Hours: Sat 11am-3pm and by appointment

The Fuel And Lumber Company presents Off Kilter / In Time, a two-person exhibition with works by April Bachtel and Mary Laube. April Bachtel’s sculptures are made from second-hand artifacts that she dismantles and reassembles with both a violent and tender hand. In contrast to Bachtel’s rough-hewn objects, Mary Laube’s austere paintings of imagined, flattened worlds are at once familiar but removed from a reality directly perceived. Bachtel’s assembly of fragmented parts and Laube’s sharply cropped scenes distort our perspective and alter our sense of body and space. --The Fuel and Lumber Company

The Fuel and Lumber Company was cofounded in 2013 by Amy Pleasant and Pete Schulte.

Czong Institute of Contemporary Art

The Warp Whistle Project has a piece in the Yellow Book International Exhibition at the Czong Institute of Art in Gimpo, South Korea.

CICA Museum’s art book project “Art Yellow Book” provides a unique art space for artists. Unlike gallery spaces, art books are portable and ubiquitous. Unlike online media, books are tactile and “real.” Art Yellow Book aims to create a space where individual artists can freely express themselves and become media themselves.

Art Yellow Book features artists from around the world. Each artist freely organize two facing pages in the book, using these pages as an exhibition form and an advertisement for themselves and their work. There are no rules or restrictions regarding the layout, design, or content. If you would like to know more about the artists, visit their websites by scanning their QR codes, or contact them directly by email.

The Art Yellow Book International Exhibition Summer 2016 features 32 international artists who participated in Art Yellow Book #2. The exhibition will be held from July 1st to 17th, 2016, featuring Photography, Video Art, and Digital Art. --CICA

Somewhere along the line I had a teacher that convinced me that, at their core, science and religion were ultimately the same things. They are systems for making sense of the human condition. They function as narratives; bedtime stories that ease the mind to sleep. They provide framework that give us purpose and keep us confident that we aren’t just hapless passengers, stuck on a rock hurtling through space, that truly, something bigger is at work.

On an individual level, we all write our own smaller narratives. It’s what we choose to wear and how we present ourselves socially to the world. They are where we come from and where we choose to go, how we interpret history, politics and evolution as they relate to us personally. Whether the stories are fact fiction or some blurred reality, they keep us sane and give us a place.

This show is a patchwork of strategies- works the artists are using to look both at the world and their self. They are analyzing systems, mythologies and environments that were presented to us as fact and comparing them to those that we craft ourselves everyday. These tools not only identify the artists’ points of departure from the world around them, but create new realities, new mythologies, new belief systems. --Jesse David Penridge
