On the run from water

Kuna Yala in Panama consists of a long narrow strip of land and an archipelago of 365 islands. Due to the rising sea level many Kuna have to move to the mainland. In August 2012, the first 65 families will be evacuated. This series is part of Kadir van Lohuizen's ongoing Via Panam project.

Sea Worthy: An Exhibition
EFA Project Space

June 10 – July 29, 2011

Opening Reception: Friday, June 10, 2011, 6 - 8 pm

EFA Project Space is located at 323 West 39 Street, 2nd Floor. New York, NY 10018
http://www.seaworthynyc.org/

EFA Project Space, Flux Factory and  The Gowanus Studio Space present Sea Worthy, an exhibition and series of public screenings, performances, lectures, workshops and artist-led excursions on the water.  With 72 islands and over 700 miles of coastline, New York City is a formidable archipelago. This project invites discussion about water access, activates the largest open space in the city, and engages maritime themes in contemporary art practice. Sea Worthy brings together artists from here and abroad – in consultation with boat builders, world-class mariners, historians, writers, activists, and ecologists – to make new work about, around, and on the waterways of New York City in the summer of 2011. 
EFA Project Space presents an exhibition featuring artists who approach water navigation as subject, pushing its potential as a mutable open platform for social experimentation as well as metaphor for personal, artistic, and collective freedom. The show includes installations, models, prints, drawings, photos, videos, and various other musings by artist-seafarers who generously impart their experience of the sea in order to refresh our perception of the land.



Artists included in the Sea Worthy Exhibition are: Michael Arcega, Rachel Bacon, Jimbo Blachly & Lytle Shaw, Matt Bua, George Boorujy, Adriane Colburn, Heather Dewey-Hagborg & Thomas Dexter, Amze Emmons, Jason Gandy, Richard Haley, Haley Hughes, Sarah Julig, Jonathan Kaiser, Marie Lorenz, Ciarán Ó Dochartaigh, Anne Percoco, Natalia Porter, Duke Riley, Tod Seelie, Reid Stowe, and Swimming Cities.
