Alterity:
Art from the Peripheries
OPENING: Thursday, September 20th at 6:30pm
at the Company Gallery.
Free and Open to the Public
(Syracuse, NY) On Thursday, September 20t ThINC will open a group show of art
drawn
from alternative art movements. The 20 works included in the exhibition
represent
a range of so-called "outsider" art made by those who do not work within the
sphere
of the traditional art world, prisoners, people with various compulsive agendas
(the evils of taxes, for instance), and individuals with such significant
disabilities
as schizophrenia and autism. Dan Miller, currently featured at White Columns
Gallery
in New York, and one of whose drawings was recently purchased by The Museum of
Modern
Art in New York, is one of the artists whose art those who visit the exhibition
will be able to enjoy; he is represented by several works in ThINC's
exhibition.
Also on view are drawings and objects produced by prisoners and former prison
inmates who participated in programs at the Center for Community Alternatives in
Syracuse. In addition, there are three sculptures by Edward Nagrodzki, a
self-appointed
'tax rebel'. The sculptures are representative of the wide array of creative
forms
he used to protest the imposition of taxes.
"Outsider art has been historically treated, especially in group shows, by
categories.
Alterity will present the viewer with a more integrated alternative to viewing
this
kind of art. The audience will not be alerted to any particular categories of
outsider
art in the gallery. By making this simple change we can challenge previous
conceptions
of this artwork and the people who made it," says Executive Director Andrew
Mount.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The root of the word Alterity is taken from the Latin alter, meaning otherness.
"The work in ThINC's current exhibition is drawn from outlets of artistic
expression
that are parallel to the traditional art world. Such art is usually made by
people
who lack formal art training, do not necessarily consider themselves artists,
and
often have little knowledge of or interest in the established art structure,
with
its museums, galleries, publications and marketplace." says internationally
recognized
art historian Jonathan Holstein. "There has been an interest among some artists
and collectors in such work over the past century, but it has lately become a
category
in the art market, with such associated appurtenances as galleries specializing
in outsider art, outsider art fairs in major cities (New York, Chicago), a
growing
interest among collectors, etc. For me the work has been extraordinarily
instructive
in understanding what prompts people to make art, and how they set about doing
it
once they have a vision they wish, or feel compelled, to share. "
Alterity will open September 20th, 5 - 8 pm and will run through October 20th,
2007.
The opening reception is free and open to the public and will be part of the the
citywide gallery night. ThiNC will hold its regular Pillow Talks series
surrounding
the exhibition theme on Thursday, October 11 at 6 pm at the Company Gallery.
Pillow
Talks is a recurring series of discussions and public events that are free and
open
to the public.
