An Exhibition of 3 fresh new artists who deal with street culture at the Nasher Museum of Art.
The artists in “Street Level” explore the ways that cultural territories are defined and space is transformed in urban environments. For Bradford, Cordova and Rhode the streets of Los Angeles, Lima, Miami, New York, Cape Town, Johannesburg and Berlin act as sources of inspiration. They share a common interest in found materials and artistic gestures such as sneakers thrown over a telephone wire, stripping cars, spontaneous shrines and piles of discarded objects, that help build a gritty foundation for their art.
Street Level is the first show at the Nasher Museum to be organized by curator of contemporary art Trevor Schoonmaker.
