REGINA REX

What caught my eye about this show was the definition of what Regina Rex is and the show looks good too.

Regina Rex is an artist-run exhibition space located on the border of Ridgewood, Queens and Bushwick, Brooklyn. Through an inclusive collaborative structure, Regina Rex aims to build an exhibition context that is rigorous, cogent and driven by our engagement and dialogue with other artists. There are currently thirteen participating curators at Regina Rex.


This is a model worth copying or studying...

ART BLOG ART BLOG is extremely pleased to announce the opening of Entanglement, curated by Regina Rex. This show is the third in a series of exhibitions ART BLOG ART BLOG is presenting at a temporary location in Chelsea, NY on the 11th floor of 508 West 26th St. An opening reception will be held on Friday, June 24th from 6-9 p.m. in Chelsea, and will continue at Regina Rex from 9 p.m. -12 a.m. The exhibition runs through Saturday, July 9th. Open hours at ART BLOG ART BLOG are Wednesdays - Saturdays from Noon- 6p.m. and by appointment. Open hours at REGINA REX are Saturdays – Sundays from Noon- 6p.m. and by appointment.
Entanglement is an exhibition in two locations: the temporary site of ART BLOG ART BLOG at 508 W. 26th Street in Chelsea and REGINA REX at 1717 Troutman St. in Queens. Exploring simultaneity, symmetry and seriality, all ten artists are each presenting the same or closely related works in each space. Including sculpture, painting, drawing, photography, wall-drawing and video, the exhibition addresses the intrinsic and cosmic likeness of things made by any individual. Despite difference in context and subtle changes in form or scale, Entanglement acknowledges the entirety present within the piece.
