Self Storage NYC

Type: Exhibition Opportunities [View all]
Posted by: Flux Factory
Deadline: Fri, August 11th, 2017

 

Taking full advantage of the "First Month Free" promotional offers used by the storage facilities in Long Island City, Queens, Self Storage NYC will help venue-less spaces ‘legally occupy’ storage units to create a context driven exhibition addressing topics of gentrification, consumption, community, resilience, displacement – and storage.

Applicants are invited to send proposals of how they would curate/utilize a storage space for a one month period as if it were a meeting space/gallery. Each show will have its own (sub)title and will freely apply its own desired thematic angle to the overall concept and the surroundings. 

The presentation of the Self Storage NYC show will be a fully automated experience, granting the individual audience access through the Self Storage show’s website. During the route to the storage units, the audience chooses from a selection of accompanying audio walks/soundscapes accessed via the phone line.
