IN ART PURSUIT at The Invisible Dog

IN ART PURSUIT

MARCH 8 & 9 – PART OF INVISIBLE DOG’S OPEN STUDIO WEEKEND – Creativity at The Invisible Dog Art Center comes in many forms. Thirty-four distinctive artists now cultivate their creative practices on all three floors of 51 Bergen Street. We invite you to discover them for yourself during The Invisible Dog Art Center’s 2014 weekend event. Throughout the weekend of March 8 and 9, The Invisible Dog is yours to roam. Four fresh exhibitions, including the new Glass House gallery extension, and open access to the studios make for a personal, immersive, art experience.

In Art Pursuit comes with a challenge: upon entering The Invisible Dog on both Saturday and Sunday, visitors will be given one of three itineraries—sets of questions and clues relating to the Art Center’s multifaceted operations—to help guests determine their route around the building. These curious queries will guide guests to engage with the diverse array of work produced here and the minds behind it.

As visitors pursue all the creative offerings on display, from the Glass House to the third floor, which will feature the Invisible Dog’s annual resident artist group show Hive, they are invited to cast their completed questionnaires into a raffle for small works donated by the artists of The Invisible Dog. The drawing will take place in the days following the weekend, and only those whose answers are accurate will qualify for the opportunity to take home a piece of The Invisible Dog. We encourage you to become a part of the pursuit!

In Art Pursuit is organized by Anne Mourier and Aaron Freed, Invisible Dog’s resident artists.

From their selection of material and media, to collaborations and conceptual works, the Invisible Dog Art Center’s 33 international artists pay homage to the inspiring environment in which they evolve – creating a collective exhibition to unite their diverse skills under one theme. Only 4 years old, the art center has already established itself as a pioneer in housing avant-gardist programming and artists. Not only does the Invisible Dog challenge our preconceptions of art and presentation, but it attempts to do so in every possible medium and discipline, as a supportive space for plays, contemporary dance, music, conferences, contemporary art exhibitions and artists of all kinds. The artists share and mix their creative juice to produce a unique flavor of culture. A metaphor for this dynamic community, Hive demonstrates how individuals of such vast talents flourish together.

Exhibition curated by Gaelle Porte

In addition, The 4th annual open studios of all Invisible Dog artists-in-residence. Once a year (and only once a year) we open our artists’ studios to the public. Don’t miss this rare opportunity to see what everyone has spent the year working on.
