Diverse works showcase Dia's Arts Education Program
On Wednesday, May 1, 2002, from 5 to 7 pm, Dia Center for the Arts will
open its fifth annual exhibition of art created in Dia's Arts Education
Program. The exhibition celebrates the works of New York City junior
high-school students affiliated with Dia's education program.
On view on
the fifth floor of 535 West 22nd Street, the exhibition will remain open
to the public through Sunday, May 5. Hours are Wednesday through Sunday
from 12 noon to 6 pm.
The students' works draw on their visits to Dia exhibitions as well as
their classroom studies in a variety of subjects. Included are two- and
three-dimensional pieces exploring the conceptual, formal, and
mathematical applications of the spiral, created in response to Diana
Thater's multi-projection video installation Knots + Surfaces; a video
and written works in Spanish created by an eighth-grade language class
during an investigation of the issues of identity and expression raised
by Roni Horn's two-part exhibition "Blah, Blah, Blah..."; and projects
that respond to other exhibitions of Dia's 2001-2002 season, including
Jorge Pardo and Gilberto Zorio's collaborative exhibition "Reverb";
Alfred Jensen: "Concordance," an exhibition of Jensen's rarely seen
paintings; and "Mapping the Studio I (Fat Chance John Cage)," a
large-scale video installation by Bruce Nauman.
Opening Wednesday, May 1, 2002, from 5 to 7 pm
Hours are Wednesday through Sunday
from 12 noon to 6 pm.
