The Art of Collaboration Exhibit September 17-October 27th, 2018 Venus Over Manhattan Gallery @V_over_M

Venus Over Manhattan is pleased to present The Art of Collaboration, an exhibition dedicated to collaboratively produced works of art.

Comprising a tightly focused selection of major collaborations, the exhibition will be on view from September 17th through October 27th, 2018.

The Art of Collaboration marks the first exhibition dedicated to artistic collaboration in nearly thirty years, following Cynthia Jaffee McCabe’s Artistic Collaboration in the Twentieth Century at the Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden in 1984, and Nina Castelli Sundell and Susan Sollins’ Team Spirit in 1991.

 

The Art of Collaboration highlights a specific type of collaboratively produced art.

Featuring work in nearly all media, the exhibition gathers collaborations by artists who maintain independent practices, and elect to collaborate beyond the scope of their individual productions. Variously describing personal connections, artistic affinities and conceptual attachments, many of the works on view testify to powerful relationships; others register the dynamics of influence, or complicate the notion of an artist’s signature style.

The exhibition features collaboratively produced works by Jean-Michel Basquiat and Andy Warhol;

 

Jean-Michel Basquiat and Keith Haring; Jean-Michel Basquiat, Keith Haring, Fab 5 Freddy, Futura, Eric Haze, LA II, Tseng Kwong Chi, Kenny Scharf, and others;
