ART PRACTICAL (SAN FRANCISCO) -- What might it mean to make ephemerality durable?
Built Environments, recently opened at San Francisco State University’s Fine Arts Gallery, features work by 14 artists and collectives that respond to this question, at scales ranging from monumental to miniature. Curated by Sharon Bliss and Kevin B. Chen, Built Environments “examines artistic interventions both inside and outside of the gallery space, where spatial relations and the routine materials of architecture and construction will be exploded through artistic experimentation.” In doing so, the participating artists ask: How does constructed space affect our understanding of the past, present, and future?
