March 8, 2009 - April 5, 2009
CCS Bard Galleries

Cosima von Bonin, Tom Burr, Catherine Sullivan and Artur Żmijewski,
Curated by Fionn Meade
Entr’acte is a group exhibition that looks at how four artists adopt and often invert elements of theater and dramaturgy in their work. By invoking the entr’acte as an agile form that exists between and often in productive tension with more elaborate and established formats, the exhibition looks at how such conventional themes as persona, set design, and acting the other are upended and fragmented in their work.

LIVING UNDER THE SAME ROOF: THE MARIELUISE HESSEL COLLECTION AND THE CENTER FOR CURATORIAL STUDIES

February 20, 2010 - May 23, 2010
Hessel Museum of Art

Living Under the Same Roof is the public part of a process of looking into the collection of the Hessel Museum of Art with the students of CCS Bard. The exhibition will present a mapping of the collection, in an attempt to open up to an interested audience different ways of entering it. By focusing on the artist’s books and the film/video collection, the exhibition intends to deal with notions of display, creating an apparatus that articulates the specificities of each artwork and its relations to the audience. A series of talks with artists whose works are in the collection is part of the program. Curated by CCS Bard curator in residence, Ana Paula Cohen. Opening reception: Saturday, February 20, 1:00 - 5:00 pm
