Slought Foundation is pleased to announce the exhibition “1:5:25” from May 15-June 15, 2009, part of the annual Emergent Perspectives series showcasing new work by Philadelphia-based artists and architects. The opening reception will take place at Slought Foundation on Friday, May 15, 2009, from 6:30-8:30pm.

The exhibition has been curated by Osvaldo Romberg, in collaboration with five emergent artists and architects—Srdjan Jovanovic Weiss, Asher Barkley, David Romberg, Blaine Siegel, and Constantina Zavitsanos. The generative principle for the exhibition has been the decentralization of the curatorial process, whereby the curator selected five additional curators to broaden the scope of the selection, without interference.

The video works featured in the exhibition are grouped according to five thematic categories: architecture, language, sex, the body, and technology. The exhibition features work by Robert Trempe, Jenny Sabin + Peter Lloyd Jones, Hollwichkushner, Ferda Kolatan + Erich Schoeneberger (su11), Normal Architecture Office, Jahje Bath, Jaegwon Cho, Asher Barkley, Didier Clain, Mariya Dimov, Elliott Hasiuk, Shanjana Mahmud, J Makary, Fay Morgan, Lisa Marie Patzer, David Romberg, Blaine Siegel, Robert Scobey, Aliza Shvarts, Jenny Thwing, Mike Treffehn, Naotomo Umewaka, Brent Wahl, Anastasia M Wong, and Vladimir Zykov.

ASSOCIATED PROGRAMS

In conjunction with the exhibition 1:5:25 in the main gallery, Slought Foundation is also pleased to announce Freshblood, featuring the work of emergent Philadelphia artists including Asher Barkley, Alana Bograd, Didier Clain, Aki Torii, and Constantina Zavitsanos.

At Port Richmond further continues the emergent exhibition series at a satellite site. Responding to the increased pace of studios and gallery spaces opening in locations peripheral to Philadelphia’s center city, this show participates in and supports a process of decentralization in relation to the production and exhibition of art. Please note that At Port Richmond will be on display for one night only, on May 15, 2009 from 8:30-10:30pm at the Port Richmond Studios at 3232 Collins St, Philadelphia.

At Port Richmond features the work of John Allen, Asher Barkley, Alana Bograd, Didier Clain, Mariya Dimov, Matt Kieltyka, K. Malcolm Richards, David Romberg, Robert Scobey, Blaine Siegel, Aki Torii, Amy Walsh, and Constantina Zavitsanos.
