It’s a Phase— On-Site Artist Projects at Russ Pitman Park
Curated by Divya Murthy
April 4th – May 13th 2012
This spring, multiple artists and “integrators” have been chosen to collaborate within the history, ecosystem and environmental structures of the lush 4- acre wooded Russ Pitman (RP) Park. Utilizing a variety of source materials, artists will make scientific investigations, explorations, and historical references through installations and time-based events. These on-site artists’ projects hope to highlight the process of collaboration, whether voluntary or involuntary, on all its participants- the artists, community, non- human organisms, and human visitors.
**Opening Reception April 7th from 6-8pm**
Barna Kantor will have a time-based installation from 7:45- 8:45pm
