Graduate Thesis Exhibitions

Center for Curatorial Studies, Annandale-on-Hudson

From March through May, the Center for Curatorial Studies presents 12 exhibitions curated by second-year students in the Center's graduate program in curatorial studies and contemporary art. The first group of shows opens on March 7, with a reception from 1:00-4:00p.m. The students have organized these exhibitions as part of the requirements for the master's degree.

Economies of Scale comprises diminutive works dealing with the subject of money. It includes painting, sculpture, prints, photography, and multiples by J. S. G. Boggs, Lars Fisk, Randy Gaetano, Daniel Gordon, Matt Johnson, Main Street Museum, Ryan McGinness, Gabriel Orozco, Max Schumann, Clay Weiner, and Lawrence Weiner. Economies of Scale explores the relationship between paper currency and aesthetics, touching on issues of value and the circulation of ideas.

An opening reception will be held on Sunday, March 7, from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m. (Free transportation from New York City to the opening is available.) Museum hours are Wednesday through Sunday from 1:00 to 5:00 p.m. Admission to both the museum and the reception is free.

This exhibition is part of a series of exhibitions presented by the Center for Curatorial Studies in March, April, and May 2004, curated by second-year students in the Center's graduate program in curatorial studies and contemporary art. The students have organized these exhibitions and projects as part of the requirements for the master's degree. The first of the series features four student-curated exhibitions—Between Above and Below, Economies of Scale, FLOCK, and The Happy Worker—which will be on view from March 7 to 21.

Limited free seating is available on a chartered bus that leaves from Soho in New York City on the days of the exhibition openings (Sundays, March 7, April 4, and May 9). Reservations must be made in advance by calling the Center at 845-758-7598. Bus transportation is provided through the generosity of Audrey Irmas.

Programs at the Center, including the spring exhibitions, are supported by the Friends of the Center for Curatorial Studies and by the Center's annual benefit for student scholarships and exhibitions. Additional support for the spring exhibitions has been provided by the Monique Beudert Fund and Marieluise Hessel.
