Salon: Moussa Kone and Karen Elaine Spencer

Moussa Kone will discuss his project Places to Recall, which expands on his interest in the stage as much as drawing and exhibitions. Kone will speak about this series of drawings and objects that deal with the relationship between art and its audience.

Karen Elaine Spencer will share how her current project hey! mike engenders productive failure within the context of the artist being a guest in a country not her own. She will explore how the artist residency “performs” the artist, how failure opens into art, and how words betray the speaker.

Nuria Montiel: Music Footprints

Over the course of three weeks this fall, ISCP resident Nuria Montiel collaborated with Brooklyn Preparatory high school students to create an installation based on her art work. Contributing students gained insight into contemporary art practices while creating a twenty-foot site-specific work with Montiel along the corridors of Brooklyn Prep. The work is based on a sentence chosen by the students printed onto the wall with letters resembling footsteps, to literally leave a mark or make a stand. Music Footprints was developed as part of ISCP’s Participatory Projects initiative that brings the work of resident artists into the public realm.
