CONCURRENT JURIED EXHIBIT

Sukkah City Annex: Defining & Defying Boundaries
January 16 - February 23, 2012

Presented in ASL's Dion Dion Gallery, this exhibit is co-presented by Art Saint Louis and the Museum of ImaJewnation. The aim of the project is to seek to start a conversation about the role boundaries play in defining and defying the contemporary human condition as interpreted by the building of the traditional Jewish structure of the Sukkah, a structure that recalls the homeless exodus through the desert and the festival of harvest, pilgrimage, and homecoming. A temporary structure, the Sukkah dwelling is a perfect metaphor for defining a new kind of living amidst ever-changing boundaries. The artworks in this show address the various issues involved in boundaries and the actual artworks will be Sukkah walls and/or pieces of walls. Works in this show are curated by ASL's Robin Hirsch and are part of the larger exhibition, Sukkah City StL: Defining & Defying Boundaries, presented at Shaare Emeth Congregation, St. Louis, MO (Fall 2011) and Danforth Campus of Washington University (October 17-23, 2011).
