Please join us on Sunday, June 25th at 3pm for a gallery talk with Beth Heinly, Gabriel Boyce, and Erin Murray moderated by Ulises. In conjunction with Vox’s current exhibition cycle, members of Ulises will facilitate a discussion with the artists about their exhibitions and process – light snacks and refreshments will be available as always. Their exhibitions are on view though June 25th.
Ulises is a bookshop and curatorial platform dedicated to artists’ books and independent art publications. Performing the model of a quarterly periodical, each curatorial season invites contributors to present publications, workshops, lectures, artworks, and collaborations in response to a given theme.
The name Ulises is a tribute to the work and legacy of Ulises Carrión, a Mexican-born poet, conceptualist, and avant-garde artist who was an early pioneer and theorist of the artist’s book, and the founder of the Amsterdam based bookshop Other Books and So (1975–78).
Ulises was founded in 2016 by Nerissa Cooney, Lauren Downing, Joel Evey, Kayla Romberger, Gee Wesley, and Ricky Yanas. Additional contributors include Tim Belknap, Jody Harrington, and Nabil Kashyap.
