David Wilson: Gatherings

Description

MATRIX 233
David Wilson
Gatherings
July 7–August 22

Oakland-based artist David Wilson has been making unsanctioned installations in Bay Area groves and woods, as well as related gatherings incorporating art, music, film, and performance. For a special crossover project between the museum’s MATRIX and L@TE programs, he will be in residence during July and August, occupying Gallery B with his site-specific installations, and programming a series of Friday-night performances in harmony with his interventions. Throughout these months, Wilson will be building temporary architectures, setting up a drawing studio full of artifacts and specimens, and making unique visual gestures to highlight performances and participatory activities, recording them all in an ephemeral publication whose parts can be assembled over time, through each event.

Admission to the museum is free for BAM/PFA Members, UC Berkeley students, faculty, and staff, and children under 12.
