I’m curating an evening of performance! Am so touched that these guys said yes. 🍾This is Champ Program III and brings together artists I admire who make work I believe to be thematically in-line with the sculpture. I’m honored and excited to get Michi Jigarjian, Shaun Leonardo, Sabrina Mahfouz, and Elise Peterson in a room together for one night for spoken word and performance art. 5-7pm with programming starting promptly at 5.30.... 293 10th Avenue NYC. RSVP staff@artproductionfund Massive thank you to @artproductionfund , Kasmin Gallery, and #7Gfoundation #champprogram #zoebuckman @elcleonardo @eliserpeterson @sabrinamahfouz @michijig

Juried Competition Honorable Mention Ian Lewandowski is a photographer from Northwest Indiana, presently living and working in Brooklyn. “From 2015-17, I mostly made pictures of men. Masculine images pervade my life. Served with the words and actions of the US President and the former Indiana-governor-turned-VP, the need for the Me Too movement, and the ongoing erasure of, and violent acts toward, feminine and non-binary presences, masculine energies continue to be positioned as vital. To be masculine feels dire and high stakes. Men-only spaces are protected and upheld first. When I make my work I tend to start with questions. What is at stake? Is there a method? These energies do not escape queer circles. The varied, complicated realities of queer people are easily compressed into monikers like “community”, a wording that has the capacity to further highlight and reify their difference, dismiss the nuance of their contribution. Binary thinking uncomplicates what has the potential to be reimagined." 📷: ‘Election,’ 2016. @ilewando #baxterstccny #photography

Juried Competition Honorable Mention Amiko Li: “This is a series of photographs that I made between China and U.S. Through strategies of correspondence, reenactment, exchange and mistranslation, I am exploring an aleatoric approach to Chinese vernacular culture, and the limitation to the gender representation in a global lens. In a world where culture and identity is neatly condensed and branded as a keyword for easy digestion, I want to look at things that are not so concisely fitting into the stereotypical image." 📷: ‘Paul,’ 2015. @amikoli #baxterstccny #photography
