New York, March 6-9th
Los Angeles, March 14-16th
The theme, Re–Collect, centers recollection equally with collecting as a practice. What mark do our collections make on the world? What gaps are left by those that are missing? Where can collections be restored, created, or dismantled to create a more just future?
Re–Fest presents collections made intentionally and unintentionally, by individuals, families, institutions, and computer programs, in an exhibition that makes tangible the abundance and gaps in our cultural memory.
Re–Fest is free and open to all. Artworks, performances, conversations, and workshops will occur throughout La MaMa's 74a E 4th Street building in New York City and in CultureHub LA's studio in Los Angeles.
Full artist line-up and programming schedule coming soon!
