TSA_PDF 002: Zone V
Zone V curated by Yael Eban May 1 - 14, 2020
Tiger Strikes Asteroid is pleased to present our 2nd printable exhibition Zone V, curated by Yael Eban. Zone V includes work by Roni Aviv, Magali Duzant, Jiwoong Jang, Rehan Miskci, Adam Liam Rose, Cory Emma Siegler, Rachel Stern, and Gabriela Vainsencher. Zone V refers to the photographic middle gray, perceptually halfway between white and black. Morally ambiguous and neutral, gray is the color of complexity, filling the space between absolutes. Reduction of color evokes notions of necessity, distilling an image to its abstracted core. Triple-clicking on the home button of an iPhone turns bright colors to grayscale—a hack to combat phone addiction, altering our relationship to the screen in an instant. What are the possibilities and boundaries of the monochromatic? At what point does a color image hold so little color that it reads as gray? The monochrome and color works in this show prove that limits and restraints can yield artwork that is at once intellectually rigorous and expressive.
TSA_PDF is a series of printable exhibitions curated by Tiger Strikes Asteroid. People are invited to download and print these works on their home printers and share their “install shots,” which we will share on social media and our website. We view these exhibitions as a fun, experimental way to bring something physical and meaningful into people’s homes as they socially distance.
To access the PDF to print, you can:
1) Pay-what-you-wish at PayPal.Me/TigerStrikesAsteroid . 100% of the proceeds will be split between the artists and Artist Relief.
