Selective Memory Exhibit

Category:Uncategorized

Come see the Selective Memory exhibit by Jake Ricci, currently open at The Art Space.

Jake’s work focuses on explorations of semiotics, visuality, and socio-historical narratives, which include things like creation of subject agencies and memory.

This particular exhibit is a collection of several series done in his time living and working in South Korea, Japan and Hong Kong, each of which approaches the visual image and consumption thereof in a different way:

1) IKEA Narratives focuses on globalization of standards and the consumption of directions;
2) TRASH focuses on the recycling of disparate remnants of creative processes;
3) Crossing the Street focuses on mapping the movement of the body through physical space into ideogramatic representations of the urban subject;
4) Selective Memory focuses on the formation and critical analysis of social expectations and collective memory using authentic material from a 1961 McKeesport Daily newspaper (Pittsburgh).

The exhibit will be open through January 26.

The Art Space is open:Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, from 12 pm to 6 pmSaturday from 10 am to 4 pm
The Art Space is located at 212 Fourth Street in downtown Huntingdon.
