The Brooklyn
Waterfront Artists Coalition is excited to announce our
second Black & White National Juried art show, opening August
1, 2015. We are privileged to have one of NY’s art elite as
our juror, Christiane Paul, Adjunct Curator of Media Arts at the
Whitney Museum of American Art. Ours is a truly unique gallery – a
massive Civil War-era warehouse on the Red Hook waterfront in Brooklyn,
NY. We will be using 8,000 square feet of massive warehouse
space for this show, and look forward to exhibiting artist’s work from
all around the country in all sizes, subjects, and media, except film.
We bathe in the beauty of color and spin thousands of words describing
the experience that the cone cells transmit to our brain. In
reality, they are not nearly as numerous as our rods, the cells that
register light and dark, the black and white of our
experience. Black and white is primal, the underneath, the
foundation of the opulence of color; black and white is where we
register motion and, with insufficient light, optimize our survival in
the night woods. Black and White intends to explore this
underground of survival.
JUROR:
Christiane Paul is Adjunct Curator of New Media Arts at
the Whitney Museum of American Art, where she has curated
several exhibitions—including Cory Arcangel: Pro Tools (2011),
Profiling (2007), Data Dynamics (2001) and the net art selection for
the 2002 Whitney Biennial—as well as artport, the Whitney Museum’s
website devoted to Internet art. Dr. Paul is Associate
Professor in the School of Media Studies at The New School in New York
City.
