Exhibiting June 27- July 31, Reception: Saturday, June 27
AC2 gallery, Albuquerque, New Mexico
AC2 in collaboration with the For-Site Foundation presents place-based projects by graduate students from California College of the Arts (CCA). With an experimental approach to site-specific work, eight San Francisco Bay Area artists respond to the specific qualities of the Sierra Nevada foothills with fresh eyes. The projects were conceived and created on 49 acres outside of Nevada City, California. Works address the layered histories of the land from pre-mining practices through contemporary, urban ecology. Investigations were led by visiting artists Vaughn Bell, Susanne Cockrell, Richard Walker and archeologist and historian Hank Meals in negotiating individual art practices with the circumstances of time and place.
