Jerry Blackman & Ira Eduardovna

It is our pleasure to announce that Ira Eduardovna and Jerry Blackman have been selected as our “Summer Session” artists.

Ira Eduardovna’s exploration of video was exceptionally intimate yet accessible. We look forward to seeing how her experimentation in pushing the boundaries of video evolves.

Jerry Blackman’s work struck us as a refreshing contemporary take on incorporating symbolism and iconography. Latent with a very current view or ageless visuals, Jerry Blackman’s work carries on an identity that is youthful and inquisitive. We are intrigued to see him prosper.

We are excited to see what Ms. Eduardovna and Mr. Blackman create over the next weeks. As well, we are thrilled to know we will have opportunities to work with other new artists in years to come.
