Alternative Art Space

There’s a whole other art world, and an increasingly vibrant and important one, outside the mainstream art gallery and museum system.

Part one: Research alternative art spaces. Select a space that you find compelling and unique. Explain the details of this organization. How does it function? Physical space, pop up, temporary, outdoors, online? What does it focus on? Who has founded it? How does it run? Why? What kinds of art and art practice does it support and exhibit? Why does this art space exist? Does it serve a purpose outside of the mainstream institutions? Why is it important to the community it serves?

Part two: Create a short proposal to this institution. If they have instructions, follow them If not, based on your research propose a show, your own work, an event, a performance etc. to them for the coming year. Post this with your analysis of the space.

Use proper citations. ~6-8 paragraphs you must include images and links.

Institution review/analysis/reaction.

Please review each of the institutions we have visited: Newark Museum and MoMA. Address the questions we have discussed with specific examples we saw and discussed with each other and the members at each of the institutions. Use this analysis to explain how these visits have informed your experience as a member of an art audience as well as how it has informed your own art-making and exhibition. What does this analysis have you thinking about. Reference our class reading as well as other research. Use proper citations.

~6-8 paragraphs you must include images and links.
