Happy New Year & Welcome to another exciting year of exhibitions at AS220!
The new year starts with great new shows in the Main Gallery with
photographer Scott Alario's new work from his series Our Fable; and Angela Ruo exhibits new abstract paintings from her Body and City series.In the Open Window, Armi Diaz's work explores fear and anxiety with a scathing sense of humor, and in the AS220 Project Space, Merle Mainelli Poulton's new work investigates two separate thoughts on fragments: Childhood Memories and The Fragments of Sappho.
AS220 also celebrates David Wojnarowicz with a month long video installation of Fire In My Belly in the AS220 Main Gallery and the Project Space Reading Room. Late last year Smithsonian secretary G. Wayne Clough censored Fire In My Belly from the exhibition Hide/Seek: Difference and Desire in American Portraiture at the National Portrait Gallery. AS220 joins with other art institutes across the country to celebrate David Wojnarowicz and the freedom of expression.
