AVANT}{GARDEN

curated by Kio Griffith
presented by [TYPE]

“AVANT}{GARDEN” is part two of a two-part exhibition presented by TYPE at Arena 1 Gallery featuring emerging and mid-career artists. The exporation follows each artist’s creation to the observation cliff with a full view of the contemporary art garden.
Beginning April 17th, each selected work in this exhibition will be carefully planted daily in a section of the gallery. As the view will change throughout the duration, repeat visits are suggested. The completed installation can be observed on April 22 with an artists reception from 7-10pm.
