ART21: Kerry James Marshall at Prospect.3 Biennial in NOLA

ART21
Chicago-based artist Kerry James Marshall travels to the Prospect.3 biennial in New Orleans, Louisiana and speaks with five fellow artists and one collective: Zarouhie Abdalian, William Cordova, Lonnie Holley, Yun-Fei Ji, Christopher Myers, and The Propeller Group.  For Marshall, a biennial presents an opportunity to "try out something more experimental." His site-specific installation of futuristic gold plexiglass alcoves in the windows of the Ashé Cultural Arts Center creates "an otherworldly space" that "cuts against the grain of a kind of abjection that people associate with the recovery from [Hurricane] Katrina." Prospect.3 is on view October 25, 2014 through January 25, 2015.
