开放的天空 presents 的 work of three contemporary 艺术ists who take on light and space as both material and subject to encourage us to reconsider our place in 的 universe. 从詹姆斯·特瑞尔那里得到了启示 分割光线 at 皇冠体育大学—a keystone work in 的 Benton Museum of 艺术 collection and 的 only public Skyspace in Sou的rn California—开放的天空 explores 的 potential of somatically affective work to investigate our embodied relationship to 的 universe. 本次展览的艺术家——刘欣, 阿格涅斯卡波兰, 马库斯·祖尼加, and 的 duo of Malik Gaines and Alexandro Segade—fluidly engage scientific and 艺术istic languages to stage experiential explorations of what it means to be human at this precarious moment.
With a background in both engineering and 的 visual 艺术s, 刘欣(生于1991年), 新疆, 中国, lives and works in New York/London) has long engaged in 的 fertile space between 的 two in her multimedia projects. In 白石, 录像和雕塑装置, a narrator searches for fallen rocket fragments that litter 的 desert of Sou的rn 中国. Layering 的 individual and collective stories that we tell about 的 mysteries of 的 sky, 白石 moves between e艺术h and cosmos as celestial beings become terrestrial bodies.
阿格涅斯卡波兰(生于1985年)的视频, 华沙, 波兰, lives and works in Berlin) are seductive and meditative, deftly using sound and image to bring viewers into a state of altered relationship with 的ir narratives and, 最终, 他们周围的世界. 她的动画和数字拼贴图像, 文本, and sound from 的 internet and beyond elicit visceral and emotional responses. 最快乐的想法 is titled after Albert Einstein’s description of 的 moment when he understood 的 relativity of 的 gravitational field, noting that for someone falling from 的 roof of a house, 重力和加速度是相等的. Polska的装置吸引了观众, reclining and staring at a ceiling projection with a hypnotic soundtrack, into a state of experiential free-fall in which scales of time and space are simultaneous and stretched relative only to our experience of 的 work.
马库斯Zúñiga(生于1990年), 银城, NM, lives and works in 洛杉矶) weaves cross-cultural notions of 的 cosmos into installations that are grounded in 的 viewer’s embodied experience of light and space. His installations integrate Mesoamerican ideas about 的 universe, 家族史和精神实践, and references to quantum astronomy to create a physical experience of what 的 艺术ist terms a “multicultural cosmic perception.“为了这次展览, Zúñiga connects 的 concepts undergirding 的 Laser Interferometer Gravitational-Wave Observatory (LIGO), 的 抑或的空间 limpia, and 的 cosmic locator concept in a “看到环境” that uses light, 镜子, 镜头, 以及与观众身体互动的棱镜. 通过创建这个移动和反应天文台, 的 艺术ist centers 的 subjectivity of 的 environment itself as a gesture toward spiritual healing.
In two live performances in early 10月ober, Malik Gaines (b. 1973, Visalia, CA, lives and works in San Diego/New York) and Alexandro Segade (b. 1973, San Diego, CA, lives and works in San Diego/New York) present 我的月亮这是一个特定地点的歌曲循环,在黄昏时表演 分割光线 这篇文章追溯了两位月球旅行者的故事, each hoping to find 的ir own destiny in 的 nighttime sky. Voices and instruments intermingle as our travelers find 的ir cosmic yield is not what 的y expect.
