“Don’t mind if I do” with work by Felicia Griffin at moCa Cleveland

moCa Cleveland 11400 Euclid Ave., Cleveland, OH, United States

"Don’t mind if I do" destabilizes rigid ableist and exclusionary museum “best practices” like sparse seating, untouchable objects, dense wall labels, and guards who protect rather than invite engagement. It is a project built upon a framework of flexibility. By welcoming glitches, inviting informality and messiness, and unsettling the hierarchy of objects, "Don’t mind if I do" prioritizes people over artwork and makes more room for us to show up as our full selves.

Esmeralda Silva in “Objects in Mirror are Closer than they Appear” // Arts of Life

Arts of Life - North Shore Studio 1963 Johns Drive, Glenview, IL, United States

Arts of Life and Circle Contemporary are excited to announce Objects in Mirror are Closer than they Appear.  An exhibition that features representations of automobiles and car culture as symbols of freedom, self-expression, safety, and individuality; while simultaneously demarcating these phenomena as functions of time and desire that epitomize the economic, cultural, and social conditions from which they appear.
