Why Proliferations? Why now when we are experiencing a time of perceived lack- perhaps just for that reason. Because the truth is that there is no shortage or either material goos or spectacular ideas, only a shortage of dissemination. In speaking to this era of both limitless and very limited possibilities, the artists in Proliferations I + II reflect upon and inspire strategies for understanding our present realities; reifying the plethora of voices and generating discussion from babble. This exhibition brought together artists who both critically and formally addressed the idea of Proliferations through examination of the body, history, bounty and waste, life and death.
