Beyond Archive聽Presented by The Incubation Series
What exists beyond the reach of documented history? Departing from state-sanctioned, institutionally maintained materials, Beyond Archive presents three artists who extend the boundary of archives through fabricated historical dioramas, cartography rooted in private memories, and the naming and writing of ethnic, gendered bodies. Through the mediums of photography, sculpture, performance, and video installation, Jewan Goo, Gayoung Lee, and Marta Rodriguez Maleck evoke questions on the ethics of alternative archives. Could remembering, forgetting, and reinventing the past be a remedy? What echoes do they cast upon the future?
Beyond Archive features the work of UPenn MFA candidates and is co-organized by Lynette Qiuyang Shen and Star Yixin Song. It is the twenty-third exhibition in the Incubation Series鈥攁 student-led initiative that fosters new ways of making, exhibiting, and seeing art. This exhibition is made possible with the generous support of the College Center for Visual Culture and the Department of the History of Art at Bryn Mawr College, and The Sachs Program for Arts Innovation, the Department of the History of Art, School of Arts and Sciences, and the Department of Fine Arts, Weitzman School of Design at the University of Pennsylvania.
