…We are asking that our audience members (from arts organization leaders, writers, curators, and artists to members of the general public who appreciate art) select an artwork that they’d like to see in the exhibition. Here is a link that goes directly to the artwork selection site. The crowd-sourcing process ends on September 15th, and the resulting data and commentary will shape the scope of the exhibition, which opens on December 1st. Programming will be driven by the results of the crowd-sourcing as well. Complete details and explanation behind the crowdsourced show at the Citizen Salon web page on the gallery’s website.
