“within________distance” BY JUST US ARTIST INITIATIVE AT BROOKLYN ARTISTS GYM


Just Us, in collaboration with Brooklyn Artists Gym, is pleased to announce the opening of “within_______distance," the second collective group exhibition of works by the artists of the Just Us artist initiative.
The idea of distance, in its various forms, is so often simplified and overlooked, despite its presence in our daily lives. The exhibition will include artists presenting their perceptions and interpretations of distance. Whether it is within viewing, reaching, or even a non-existent distance, the work presented in “within_______distance” will approach spatial distance, literally and figuratively.  “within_______distance” will include works in various mediums, including video, animation, printed and painted images, and three-dimensional installations.
