No Looking After the Internet is a monthly “looking group” that invites participants to look at a photograph (or series of photographs) they are unfamiliar with, and “read” the image out-loud together. For the April meeting of No Looking After the Internet, artist Chris Curreri presents a collection of found photographs that elude easy interpretation.

No Looking After the Internet is a monthly “looking group” that invites participants to look at a photograph (or series of photographs) they are unfamiliar with, and “read” the image out-loud together. In response to Deanna Bowen’s solo exhibition, Invisible Empires, at the Art Gallery of York University (AGYU), the first meeting of No Looking will place archival images of racial violence in dialogue with Bowen’s installation.
“Residing”
Blog post #4 - "Residing"
Next week marks my last week of actually “residing” at TPW’s R&D space in the first phase of my curatorial residency there. There are finally some things up on the wall, and audio excerpts from the “Unshowable Photographs” panel discussion playing, and a wall painted purple with some vinyl text on it announcing the project.

Aesthetics of Curating
Blog post #3 - Aesthetics of Curating
I missed today’s curatorial open studio hours (due to an unexpected and poorly timed migraine) and am very sorry if anyone came by looking for me to find an empty desk. But, I’ll continue to be in the gallery next week, working on how to extend some of the questions that were raised at the first “Coming to Encounter” and Gallery TPW R&D event, a panel discussion on "Unshowable Photographs."

As a follow up to the first event in the “Coming to Encounter” series, I’ll be spending the next two weeks in the Gallery TPW R&D space, testing out how to transform the questions that the panel discussion about "Unshowable Photographs" raised into an experimental gallery exhibition.
