For Good Measure: A Walking Workshop

February 21

Saturday, February 21

Noon– 1:30 p.m.

Free and open to the public.

Join us for a walking workshop inspired by the exhibition All Four Seasons in Equal Measure. Together we will embark on a walk to consider how walking can shift our experience of measure. We will experiment with different prompts and modes of noticing to see how we might fall in or out of line. Participants will be invited to develop an (un)measured score after our walk. This program will be led by Chandra Frank (assistant professor of women’s, gender, and sexuality studies at the University of Cincinnati and an independent curator).

All Four Seasons in Equal Measure brings together six artists, all of whom live and work in Kentucky, whose works highlight their intimate relationship with place and the natural world. Their creative output celebrates the beauty of the environment and demonstrates their concern for its precarities through painting, works on paper, sculpture, video, and installation.

The exhibition continues on the second floor along with an activation that points to the history of this building as a library. A transitory space at the top of the rear stairs has been transformed into a reading room, populated with books recommended by the artists and copies of Walden.

All Four Seasons in Equal Measure was curated by guest curator Monique Long in collaboration with The Carnegie.

Artists: Britany Baker, Kiah Celeste, Shohei Katayama, Gibbs Rounsavall, Rachel Singel, Roy Taylor
