Live Exhibition Tour “Artist Chris Curreri with Agnes Curators”

On May 4th we take audiences on a virtual tour through the current exhibitions at Agnes, with conversations between artist Chris Curreri and Agnes Curators Emelie Chhangur and Suzanne van de Meerendonk. Our focus is on the exhibition Chris Curreri: A Surrogate, A Proxy, A Stand-In with a discussion around curatorial links between this exhibition and the two other exhibitions currently on view at the gallery — Studies in Solitude and The Dark Room. We invite participants to ask questions in a Q&A.

We aim to bring you an exhibition experience that gives you a sense of the program in space, an understanding of curatorial considerations, dialogues between curators and artists, insights behind key works, and a live Q&A opportunity facilitated by Rebecca Carbin. This virtual exhibition tour is supported by documentation, photos, video footage and provides an opportunity for participants to ask questions. This event is hosted by ART + PUBLIC UnLtd. It is also an opportunity to experience Agnes Reimagined, the institutional transformation currently in play at Agnes.

A Surrogate, A Proxy, A Stand-In continues Chris Curreri’s interest in liminal spaces and the relation between concepts. His work explores the space where processes unfold before becoming fixed, underscoring the meaning that exists in the connections. A Surrogate, A Proxy, A Stand-In connects, through the artist’s own history, the experimentation of the darkroom to the nighttime freedom of the gay bar. Curreri, Chhangur, and van de Meerendonk together discuss the relationship between Chris’s solo exhibition and concurrent exhibitions of work from the Gallery’s collection.
