Footlocker, Thomas Teurlai’s solo American debut, was curated by M&S senior Joseph Shaikewitz as a Capstone project in Museums and Society and supported by an Arts Innovation Grant funded by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation. Popular art blog Hyperallergic featured the exhibition on Instagram. The show is up at the Copycat Building through March 22, with select visiting times.
The first American solo-exhibition of French artist Thomas Teurlai opens March 6, 2015, in the Copycat Building, Baltimore, MD. Creating site-specific works within the parking garage of the former manufacturing warehouse, Teurlai unearths the relationship between mechanical and industrial materials and experiences of the sublime. His project assembles new and ongoing projects that challenge the limits of the viewer and the sanctity of the art object.
