About this Event

Join Barrier Curators Kaitlin Pomerantz and Lucia Thomé, as well as several artists whose work is featured in the show, as they discuss the curation, design, and installation during a gallery talk on the exhibition's final day.

A closing reception follows the talk. Refreshments will be served.

Barrier brings together work from 12 artists based in Philadelphia, New York, and New Jersey that both critiques and reimagines barrier infrastructures designed to separate or enclose, such as gates, fences, windows, and walls. Through mixed media approaches, including sculpture, installation, video, painting, and works on paper, the featured selections engage themes of property and public space, geopolitical volatility, ecology and the built world, materiality, memory, and diaspora. The artworks on view posit barriers as porous portals, evoking Angela Davis’s transformative abolitionist vision that “walls turned sideways are bridges.”

Barrier features work by Sandra SK Amoabeng, Matthew Colaizzo, Ghida Dalloul, FORTUNE, Rami George, David L. Johnson, Naomieh Jovin, Zach Ozma, Pallavi Sen, Ivanco Talevski, Kristen Neville Taylor, and Levester Williams.
