Virtual Tour and Artist Discussion: The Earth Is Blue Like an Orange

Alexandra Sloan Friedman, organizer of The Earth Is Blue Like an Orange, will give a comprehensive tour of the exhibition now on view in ISCP’s gallery via Instagram Live. She will be joined remotely by participating artists, Svetlana Bailey, Moko Fukuyama, Wieteke Heldens, Alison Nguyen, and Habby Osk, who will speak about their work in the exhibition and engage in conversation with Alexandra in five minute intervals. The Earth Is Blue Like an Orange, a title derived from poetry by French surrealist Paul Éluard (1895-1952), evokes the collective memory of 2020 through eight artists’ differing viewpoints. In an unparalleled period characterized by the COVID-19 pandemic, and a heightened collective awareness of widespread racial injustice, the individual works reflect a range of concepts and emotions.

Tune into the Instagram Live here on Tuesday, December 8, at 4pm.

The exhibition is on view through December 10. Please write to info@iscp-nyc.org to schedule an appointment. The number of visitors to ISCP galleries will be limited, with timed viewing. Visitor protocols are in the Visit section of the website here.

Artists at Work: Luiza Gottschalk on Instagram Live

Artist-in-residence Luiza Gottschalk presents I Had an Accident, a performance from her home in São Paulo, Brazil, in a set designed by architect Tito Ficarelli.

Utilizing a two-channel split screen via Instagram live, this work is an interdisciplinary experiment where the artist will synthesize spoken word, choreographed movements, painting, and sound. By harmonizing elements inspired from a single narrative written in 2016, Gottschalk expands on a descriptive tale about a corporeal meeting.

Luiza Gottschalk’s paintings are inspired by Brazilian nature. The artist works with water and pigments, and employs what she refers to as organic gestures throughout her practice. Gottschalk has exhibited work at Praça das Artes; Estação Satyros; and Brazilian Art Museum (MAB), all São Paulo, among others.
