Kurt Steger: Scribing the Void

July 7 – August 21, 2016

Kurt Steger · Solo Exhibition · Flat File: Jesse Hickman, Lisa Kellner, Karen Schiff, Kurt Steger

Kurt Steger: Scribing the Void is a solo exhibition comprised of a single suspended wooden sculpture built on-site, filling the gallery space. Created by tracing the contour of a boulder found in Central Park, Kurt transferred this line, in the same orientation, into the gallery — presenting the void.

Opening Reception: Thursday, July 7, 2016, 6–8 pm. With special guests: original sound composition by RSM. Artists Talk: Sunday, July 24 at 4:00 pm. Special Events: Hot Summer Nights, Friday July 15, 6–9 pm. The Poem As A Place Through Which To Roam, a reading with artist/poet Janet Passehl, Saturday July 30, 3:00 pm. The Tempest, Bushwick Shakespeare, Sunday, August 7, 3:00 pm.
