In February Vox Populi celebrates the active practice of collectivity. X+1 is a collectively curated exhibition inspired by the concept of an internet search, where content is loosely and tightly linked to other imagery available and consumed in the digital sphere. X+1 presents over 20 distinct artist’s positions and explores the freedom of association and the beauty of exception.
For X +1, the membership was divided into groups and provided with an image of Wallace Berman’s photo assemblage “Untitled (A1-Wolf),” from 1970. With Berman’s psychological landscape in mind, one member from each group selected an artwork by an external artist to display in the galleries, and passed an image of that work to their fellow group members to respond to in-the-round. This process revisits and extends the collective’s ongoing conversation about community, media and aesthetics, from its similarly-structured 2015 exhibition, “Surf Club.”
Join us for a show curated by the Vox collective. X+1 is free and open to all — explorers, eyebrow-raisers and serious connoisseurs are welcome.
The galleries are open Wed-Sun 12-6pm. On Sunday, Feb. 18th the public is invited to an afternoon with coffee, conversation and youtube-generated music by, with, and from Vox and its guests.
