In Response


Art is open for subjective and objective critique but when the viewer is moved enough to deface a work, an inappropriate line is crossed. In Response is an opportunity for artists to express their content or distaste with a piece of artwork via creative means. Rather than turning to inherently violent reactions, we ask for positive, progressive, and thoughtful feedback.


We have chosen and borrowed Return to X, a Kathryn Andrews sculpture from the De La Cruz Collection. The piece contains a rental clown costume leased from a Hollywood prop house for a 99 year lease. This challenges the future prosperity of the prop house and opens dialogue between the art and film worlds. Andrews approach to appropriating film materials is the jump off point for In Response.


In the short time of 2 weeks, we offer this opportunity to make new work or present an existing piece in response to Return to X. The works will be shown together and in direct relation to Andrew’s piece in our Audrey Love Gallery during Art Week in Miami from 12/1/14 – 1/12/15. Artwork must be received by 12/1/14.
