Six Feet Under 2008/SUMMERTIME USA!

August 14 - 19

Curated by Ryan Finn

SUMMERTIME, that frivolous, vibrant stretch of months that throbs hot with life is suddenly upon us. Green spaces become busy and populated, cool blue spaces increase their allure. For this exhibition, Ryan Finn washes up in New York City to strip off and luxuriate in old memories– your old memories, carefree and childish. Finn considers childhood from the perspective of an adult, yet from the perspective of an adult, childhood is elusive, temporary, fun– a corrupted, no-return reality. As we grow older, what does the meaning of summer become? This is an invitation to rummage through the wreckage of our youth, salvage what we can, and pretend, absurdity and all.
