are a trio of artists - John Sutton, Ben Beres and Zac Culler - who
have worked collaboratively since 2000. They create ways to engage
viewers beyond the confines of gallery or museum walls through mobile
sculpture, street actions and temporary site-specific installations.
The last art work created by the three artists is the Small Moons installation, at the Land of Tomorrow
gallery in Louisville, Kentucky. The project is developed in
partnership with artwithoutwalls.
“Small
Moons” is a site specific art installation incorporating found and
reclaimed objects attached to large globe-shaped skeleton frames. The
artists have been working in Louisville for a month on the exhibit,
they asked local residents to donate their unwanted objects to be
part of this large installation.
"We
sent out requests for people to bring in their trashed treasures or
treasured trash, things they no longer wanted that they might
otherwise give away or throw away," says Alice Gray Stites, artwithoutwalls
director and 21C chief curator.
Small
Moons was on view at the Land of Tomorrow gallery from the end of
September through the beginning of November in 2012. When the exhibit
ends, individual items were returned to people and the globes were
donated to 21C’s collection, where they will help create similar
exhibits in other cities.
