This exhibition expands on the forthcoming issue of the artist-run journal Effects, organized around the motif of the hole. Holes draw our attention to the periphery, the edges of the visible, bringing to the fore what typically disappears into the margin. Through rips and shadows, enclosures and erasures, the included artworks address transience, destructive violence, and lost histories, while also evoking the nascent formation of as-yet-unknown patterns for meeting the problems of living — with ourselves, with one another, and with absence.Featuring work by Noel Anderson, Milano Chow, Mary Helena Clark, Clementine Keith-Roach, Lakshmi Luthra, Eric N. Mack, Nour Mobarak & Jeffrey Stuker, Christopher Page, Paul Pfeiffer, Adam Putnam, Larissa Sansour & Søren Lind, Paul Sietsema, and Patricia Treib.Opening reception Wednesday, September 24, following the 4:30pm Art Lecture.Curated by Lakshmi Luthra, Associate Professor of Art and Film & Media StudiesMore information at https://www.cliffordgallery.org/holes/*Please note: Weekend hours are dependent on the availability of student monitors.

From pre-Industrial England to modern-day Washington and Amsterdam, ordinary people, working with each other, with plants and microbes, cultivated life in the unlikeliest of places. Tiny Gardens Everywhere explores how urban gardeners reactivated commons in European and North American cities in the long 20th century. Using the deluge of nutrients that flow into cities, working class gardeners regenerated wasteland, built the first garden city communities, and engaged in the most productive agriculture in recorded human history. Following the plants and microbes, urban gardeners also built mutual aid societies that advocated for equity, social welfare and rights—rights not to liberty and the pursuit of happiness (who can eat that?) but to food, fuel and shelter; for well-being for all.Guest lecturer Kate Brown is a professor of science, technology and society at Massachusetts Institute of Technology.Co-sponsored by History, Environmental Studies, Geography, and Sociology and Anthropology
