II AMERIKA

Hi! I look forward to meeting you all in two weeks. If you're in the city prior to EAW, please take a moment to swing by ICP. I co-curated and have work in the II AMERIKA exhibition...



II AMERIKA
September 6 – October 12, 2008

Education Gallery: 1114 Avenue of the Americas at 43rd Street
Hours: Monday – Sunday, 10 am – 6 pm

Originally premiered as part of Bushwick Open Studios in June 2008 and entitled simply AMERIKA, this exhibition—II AMERIKA—further expands upon the themes and issues addressed in the original, showcasing a broader spectrum of work and delving deeper into the nation's psyche. Though it would be a mistake to suggest this is a comprehensive review, there is here the making of a statement about where the country is today.

Curated by Nicolas Silberfaden, Deidre Schoo and Tom White and coordinated by Lucy Helton, II AMERIKA brings together the work of 24 photographers and represents a broad social commentary on the United States at this pivotal moment in the country's history.
