SUMMARY:Eiko Otake: I Invited Myself\, Vol. II
DESCRIPTION:Otake’s first museum solo-exhibition\, I Invited Myself\, Vol. II\, foregrounds the artist’s video and media\, which have developed alongside her dance\, choreography\, and performance installations. Spanning from 1980 to the present\, the works on view feature a body as it moves in and through various spaces\, including the urban infrastructure of Tokyo and New York and the vast landscapes of Wyoming and California. Working closely with the curators\, Otake choreographs her media works for the galleries of the Fine Arts Center. Editing and updating them for this occasion\, she also brings in related\, weathered objects. A self-described “immigrant artist\,” Otake has challenged the expectations of a museum presentation. Rather than presenting a cohesive overview of the artist’s career\, I Invited Myself places an emphasis on transition over statis. Viewers are strongly encouraged to return as select media will rotate over the course of the exhibition.

SUMMARY:Contested Terrains
DESCRIPTION:Landscape remains important for contemporary artists\, yet many have a dramatically different relationship to the genre. The five artists featured in Contested Terrains acknowledge how human intervention has shaped landscapes across the Americas. Together\, these artists extend the potential of landscape as a genre\, and allow it to function as an entryway to overlooked histories\, acknowledging how politics\, power\, and extraction have shaped the Americas as we know them today.
