ARTISTS
The Botanica
Referring to the tradition of Hispanic botanicas (religious and magical supply shops in the Americas), AA Bronson and Michael B眉hler-Rose bring us a storefront featuring a variety of works from over 40 artists. The installation plays with the idea of the artist as a shaman or priest, the art object becomes a venerated deity, and the creation of the artwork is now a ritual consecration. Invoking spirits and evoking both real and imaginary religions, the artists confront the conventions of rituals, ritual objects, magical supplies, and spiritual consumerism, while engaging in the鈥攕ometimes difficult鈥攃onversation between spirituality and artistic practice.
