I curated an exhibit of young Javanese artists DIY


Lee Tusman

I curated an exhibit of young Javanese artists (yes, from Indonesia) opening at Space 1026 in Philly next Friday April 6, 7 - 10PM. You can read my description of the exhibit here, but essentially I was excited by the active DIY art scene and wanted to present it to Philly’s DIY art community. Space 1026 is a collective/collection of studios/community/plus gallery. Responding to the challenge of not having a dedicated exhibition budget, I developed the concept of having the work phoned in through the internet. No art was physically delivered or mailed. All works are emailed, printed and framed, screenprinted, photocopied or projected in the space. Facebook page here. The whole exhibit packs up inside 2 medium size boxes and can be shipped within the US for $50. Get in touch if you want to show this exhibit-in-a-box at your space. Photos of the install forthcoming.
