‘Studio Visit’ is an exhibition in partnership with Performance Space New York—a nonprofit organization that since 1980 has served as a laboratory for cultural experimentation and artistic dissent, featuring American Artist, Jean-Michel Basquiat, Huma Bhabha, Black Quantum Futurism, Cecily Brown, Nicole Eisenman, Jason Fox, Nikita Gale, Georgia Gardner Gray, Josh Kline, Ella Kruglyanskaya, Carolyn Lazard, Guadalupe Maravilla, Paul McCarthy, New Red Order, Monira Al Qadiri, Farah Al Qasimi, Jesús Hilario-Reyes, Alicia Riccio, Tschabalala Self, Avery Singer, Tavares Strachan, Sung Tieu, Wolfgang Tillmans, Rirkrit Tiravanija, Ambera Wellmann, & Anicka Yi.
‘Studio Visit’ foregrounds the studio as material infrastructure and conceptual site. The project centers on the studio not as a private enclave of production, but as part of a larger generative field in which identities are formed, solidarities are tested and economies emerge. Artist studios often flock together in larger buildings and neighborhoods. Community and dialogue—and invitations to visit each other’s studios—often grow out of chance encounters between young artists brought into close proximity by real estate.
Yi and Kline consider the artists participating in the exhibition their collaborators and co-authors. In addition to lending work for the exhibition, each artist was asked to describe in writing the studios or their studio practices they occupied at early, formative stages in their career.
