About this Event
The Berkeley Art Center presents, PULLEY, a radical experiment and mutual exchange between NIAD artists and Christopher Robin Duncan. The show’s punchy title refers both to the physical mechanism that allowed for these works to be created during a workshop Duncan held at NIAD in 2023, and to the greater concept of a pulley system: a collection of wheels and ropes that operate in concert to lift an object. NIAD, an acronym that stands for Nurturing Independence Through Artistic Development, likewise functions as a sort of pulley system offering the support and scaffolding for intellectually and developmentally disabled artists to explore, experiment, and elevate their creative practices within a collective and collaborative environment. In this show, the artists prioritize the magic alchemy of working in tandem with one another, with light, and with space.
