apexart is pleased to announce the three exhibitions selected for its open call for group exhibitions in NYC. The following selections will be presented at apexart - nyc as part of the 2018-19 exhibition season. Exact dates to be announced online soon.
Evelyn Owen (New York City, United States):
Tracing Obsolescence explores the material and psychic residues of global large-scale manufacturing and extraction that haunt the post-industrial subconscious. Through prints, video, and installation, it draws out obscured links between industry and contemporary environmental, socio-economic, and geopolitical crises.
Alexandra Stock (Cairo, Egypt):
Art in Custody presents artworks defaced or destroyed and documentation of objects altogether lost at the hands of customs officers in the Middle East. The exhibition creates a safe space for objects damaged either through deliberate force or passive negligence as they have moved across borders, examining the consequences of overzealous control due to misunderstanding or abuse in a regional climate of political paranoia.
Justin Tyler Tate (Cape Coral, Florida, United States):
Peer2Pickle takes on the global problem of food waste and consequent greenhouse gas increases by designing a workshop and factory for transforming fresh local produce into extended shelf-life goods. In light of the absence of governmental and corporate incentives to address the issue, the project follows an open-source model as it generates its own web-based archive of recipes and strategies.
