Iao PROJECTS and The Conference Room Gallery at Meeting <2.2>
Park City, UT. January 9, 2009 -- The Conference Room Gallery and Iao PROJECTS will be co-hosting the construction of an exhibition space built entirely out of snow called the Temporary Contemporary Snow Gallery. This will be the first time any attempt to construct a gallery out this particular molecular state rather than completely solid ice. The goal is to create negative space out of the positive using the physical snow that is abundant within the Utah area during the winter months.
Keeping within the spirit of the Sundance Film Festival, both galleries feel that exhibiting the works in such a way allows for a deeper interpretation as to how art relates to nature as well as its underlying process. Having such cutting-edge works displayed within the snow juxtaposes the idea of a spontaneously built environment while adapting to nontraditional architecture and materials.
Unlike an art fair setting where curated galleries obtain a pre-set amount of space and thus are confined to constraints or working within the allotted size, using snow enables flexibility and opportunity for changing the surroundings while retaining the integrity of the structure for this conceptual art project. Entire hotels, bars, and cafes have been constructed out of ice but never has a contemporary art gallery displayed works within the context of snow.
Both, The Conference Room Gallery and Iao PROJECTS, will be featuring artists’ works that are sustainable within these conditions and are constructed or created site-specific for the intent of exhibiting their work within such an unusual environment. This temporary installation will become the most provocative collaboration between landscape and traditional artworks, challenging the norms of the current art world.
Meeting <2.2> “In the Freezer” at the Temporary Contemporary Snow Gallery will be pushing the boundaries of the idea of a gallery as form of literal white cube.
Artist list available upon request.
No snow will be harmed in the construction of this innovative temporary gallery.
