Space Invaders,
organized by guest curator Karin Bravin, features the work of eighteen
artists who make use of the unique spaces at Lehman College - both
inside the galleries and outside the building. Using the walls, the
ceiling, the floor, or the balcony above the atrium, works appear to
grow out of the structure, hang down, wrap around, or peer out from
under. Working with a specific location in mind, the space becomes the
artist's canvas. The outcome can be organic and free flowing, expressive
and thought provoking. These site-specific installations will include
floor-bound works arranged in sprawling configurations that appear to be
organically inspired. Some of the artists use large sculptures that
skillfully appropriate both indoor and outdoor spaces. Others use bits
of material that might have once intersected with someone's life
creating an expanding cultural collage, and some create installations
that cascade from a ceiling or stretch from inside to outside. Each
artist will inhabit the space differently, taking cues from the
distinctive architecture - Lehman College Art Gallery is located in a
building designed by Marcel Breuer in 1960.
Upon approaching the gallery from the center of the campus, the viewer will encounter Rachel Hayes' boldly
colored fabric installation. Light and wind affect the piece as it is
viewed from both indoors and outdoors. On the Goulden Avenue side of the
campus viewers will find Dahila Elsayed's series of
text-based flags. These festive, poetic, and suggestive visual markers
metaphorically call to attention aspects of the campus with which one
might not be familiar. DeWitt Godfrey's monumental steel tubes sit under an overpass, nestled between concrete walls. Kim Beck's work
will lead us from the outside to inside with vinyl decals of commonly
overlooked weeds that grow out of cracks and up walls.
Inside, in the gallery lobby, Sheila Pepe will dress the atrium with a degree of craft and decoration that likely was never intended for Marcel Breuer's cast concrete; Rita MacDonald's large-scale wall drawing plays up the roundness of the foyer's walls with an image of a pattern caught in a spinning motion. Carol Salmanson's Hercules Lite, made
of transparent green plexiglass, will mimic the shape of the building's
massive support columns, emphasizing contrasting feelings of
weightlessness and ephemerality.
In the galleries, Diana Cooper will
combine fragmented photographs with three-dimensional elements,
abstracted, but projecting an inherent sense of oppressive systems,
networks, circuitry and surveillance. Heeseop Yoon's installation
of black masking tape on Mylar will play with positive and negative
space, void and solid, transforming the space into a busy network of
lines that not only slows down the process of seeing and drawing but
also suspends the viewer's gaze. Franklin Evans' work
will explode the boundaries of painting with such disparate elements as
books, sound recordings, sculpture, painting, artist's materials,
digital images, drawing, and process residue. Abigail DeVille will
transform the small video room using found and inherited domestic
objects that make a connection to her personal universe and the one at
large. Cordy Ryman's Rafter Web Scrapwall will be a sprawling 30 foot wall installation of recycled remains from a previous installation of painted wood pieces; Mariah Robertson will create a cascading floor to ceiling installation of unique photographs that are the result of darkroom experimentation. Lisa Kellner uses
the language of diseased cellular activity to make large-scale
installations. She hand forms, paints and sews together thousands of
organic, bulbous shapes out of silk organza. Nicola Lopez will create an installation using woodblock printed Mylar that will transform a portion of the space's sloping ceiling. Robert Melee's
marbleized imitation wood and drop ceiling panels will cover a space
that channels and explores the distinct, yet inter-related psychologies
of the suburban home. His installation will include the paintings of
fellow artist Erik Hanson. Gandalf Gavan's neon and mirrored wall installation will alter the viewer's perception of the exhibition space, and Halley Zien will
make use of a hidden gallery kitchen that will be invaded by hundreds
of her collaged and psychologically expressive characters.
