ABC No Rio's Ides of March 2008


ArtForward is pleased to promote ABC No Rio's Ides of March 2008:

NEW YORK – On March 14, 2008 ABC No Rio will open its Biannual building-wide exhibition, The Ides of March. The exhibition will include 30 artists groups and collaborative projects. Much work will be incorporated to the existing space and architecture of the building. The 2008 show is expressly focused on the collaborative process among existing artist collectives and individual artists banding together.

Some of the projects include a golden fire-escape by Flux Factory, a mini-exhibition of prints addressing immigration issues by Just Seeds/Visual Resistance, a new mural for ABC No Rio’s façade by Endless Love Crew, live action painting by E.Y.E. (Erase Your Ego), a renewal and rearchive of tactics used by artist teams battling it out in War Shows by artcodex, and a 3D cosmological map tracing female consciousness by Broadthinking.

The Ides of March Curatorial Committee: Michael Cataldi, Steven Englander, Michael Estabrook, Vandana Jain, Vikki Law, Joyce Manalo, and Scott Seaboldt.
