The Shape of a Pocket at Sandler Hudson Gallery
A series of contemporary art pairings that explore the intriguing intersections between SHG represented artists and emerging artists making work that challenges the traditional gallery model. The titled The Shape of a Pocket is borrowed from a 2001 collection of essays by art critic John Berger where “a pocket is formed when two or more people come together in agreement". Curated by Kelly Kristin Jones of Deadringer Projects, this effort recognizes agreements within and encourages an enlarged aesthetic in a variety of studios, venues and practices. This collaborative approach pushes beyond the limits of seemingly fixed identities and official discourse while introducing a new generation of practitioners.

Always Whenever at Twin Kittens Gallery
Responding to the complexities of perception, Chicago-based artist Aimee Beaubien uses the camera as a starting point to playfully reconfigure object, subject, and motion. Phantasmagoric patterns twist together in spontaneous forms and reconstructed family snapshots upend expectations of time, space, and place.
