CARMEN PAPALIA: LONG TIME NO SEE September 7 - October 12, 2013 Opening reception:Saturday, September 7, 5-7pm CUE Art | 137 West 25th Street Carmen Papalia's work, which takes the form of participatory public projects, explores the topic of access as it relates to public space, the Art institution, and visual culture -- as the artist's own access is defined by a visual impairment. Papalia invites the participant to explore the possibilities for learning and knowing that become available through the non-visual senses, and to trust in the revelatory practice that is non-visual interpretation. Through exercises in trust and blind orienteering, participants discover new geographic contours from which to develop a sense of place. They begin to consider looking as one of the many ways to engage with and interpret their surroundings. This is the artist's first solo exhibition in New York City. Related programming: Wednesday, September 4, 3pm: Non-visual Site Mapping at Chelsea Market Saturday, September 7, 3pm: Blind Field Shuttle Blind Field Shuttle walking tour is open to a group of 50 people and will take place on the High Line in conjunction with the opening. Participants will line up behind Papalia, link arms and will close their eyes for the entire hour-long experience . The tour will culminate in a group discussion. RSVP: [email protected] Public projects will be recorded and documented in the gallery and online. Exhibition catalogue includes essays by Harrell Fletcher, Amanda Cachia, and Stephanie Snyder.
