Lineage.



I recently curated a show in Dumbo, Brooklyn at Pochron Studios on July 9th, 2009. Here is the statement from the show that was posted on the wall that evening:

"Tonight marks the move of Pochron Studios from their Dumbo location to their all new Red Hook location. We join together two different groups of artists with the intention of exploring what can be created when communities converge.

As a swansong to this space, only artists from The Blood Dumpster Collective (whom have been steadily exhibiting at the studio over the past few years) and employees past and present whom have worked for Pochron Studios were invited to participate.

Lineage seeks to explore not the degrees by which these artists are separated, but the degrees by which these artists are so closely connected.

This multimedia exhibit showcases a variety of talent brought together by chance, time & fate. Tonight our artists explore a wide variety of content: ancestry, family, friends; nostalgia, sentimentality, legacy; time, stages, changes, eras; progress & destruction; chains, trees, rhizomes; structure; charts, graphs, and documentation.

While some artists work with classic mediums, others explore new technologies and aesthetics in self expression.

Friends, lovers, acquaintances, colleagues, coworkers and collaborators, the long lost and the found again all gather on this one night to pay homage to their intertwined and intricate Lineage."

The show was a huge success with a turnout that was immeasurable. I have curated at Pochron Studios for 3 years at this location. I am really looking forward to further developing the Red Hood gallery scene and future collaborations with Pochron Studios.
