Damon Rich: Sept 17

“Red Lines Housing Crisis Learning Center”
Thursday, September 17, 6:30pm
Studio-X, 180 Varick Street, Suite 1610

Damon Rich's exhibition "Red Lines Housing Crisis Learning Center" at the Queens Museum of Art has been characterized by conversation and public engagement--from town hall meetings held citywide in neighborhoods affected by the foreclosure epidemic, to the graphics, models, videos and archival materials that explore home finance from the Great Depression to the Subprime Meltdown, to the museum's famed "Panorama of the City of New York" onto which the “Red Lines” team mapped New York City’s 2008 foreclosure filings. At Studio-X, artist Damon Rich will discuss these experiences with QMA curator Larissa Harris, who commissioned the show at The Center for Advanced Visual Studies at MIT, and QMA Director of Public Events Prerana Reddy, who organized events around the exhibition alongside a broad array of arts-oriented programming that imagines the museum as a space for community development and social change. "Red Lines Housing Crisis Learning Center" will be on view at the Queens Museum of Art through September 27th.

Free and open to the public. RSVP: gdb2106[@]columbia[dot]edu.
